He was willing to suffer and to be despised; do you dare to complain of anything? He had enemies and defamers; do you want everyone to be your friend, your benefactor? How can your patience be rewarded if no adversity tests it? How can you be a friend of Christ if you are not willing to suffer any hardship? Suffer with Christ and for Christ if you wish to reign with Him.  Had you but once entered into perfect communion with Jesus or tasted a little of His ardent love, you would care nothing at all for your own comfort or discomfort but would rejoice in the reproach you suffer; for love of Him makes a man despise himself.  ... Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ May 11, 2000 Concluding a series on the person of Jesus:  Jesus' good news, then, was that the Kingdom of God had come, and that he, Jesus, was its herald and expounder to men. More than that, in some special and mysterious was, he was the kingdom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not the fastest horse can catch a word spoken in anger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62809]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not the fastest horse can catch a word spoken in anger.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think if you run the tournament again a week later, you could get a totally different result.

He blotted out through death the sentence of death, that by a new creation of our race in Himself He might sweep away the penalty appointed by the former Law... For Scripture had foretold that He who is God should die; that the victory and triumph of them that trust in Him lay in the fact that He, who is immortal and cannot be overcome by death, was to die that mortals might gain eternity. (Continued tomorrow)   ... St. Hilary, On the Trinity  November 2, 2000 Feast of All Souls   In this calm assurance of safety did my soul gladly and hopefully take its rest, and feared so little the interruption of death, that death seemed only a name for eternal life. And the life of this present body was so far from seeming a burden or affliction that it was regarded as children regard their alphabets, sick men their draughts, shipwrecked sailors their swim, young men the training for their profession, future commanders their first campaign -- that is, as an endurable submission to present necessities, bearing the promise of a blissful immortality.   ... St. Hilary, On the Trinity  November 3, 2000 Feast of Richard Hooker, Priest, Anglican Apologist, Teacher, 1600 Commemoration of Martin of Porres, Dominican Friar, 1639   People make mistakes when they believe. They may even want something so badly that passion creates its own evidences. Reprehensible though these habits are, they nonetheless fall within the pale of man's general effort to conform the self to things as they are. But when a person acknowledges the deficiency of evidences and yet goes right on believing, he defends a position that is large with the elements of its own destruction. Any brand of inanity can be defended on such a principle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6291</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of acceptance is the art of making someone who has just done you a small favor wish that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/283]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of acceptance is the art of making someone who has just done you a small favor wish that he might have done you a greater one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/283</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The weariest and most loathed worldly life That age, ache, penury, and imprisonment Can lay on nature, is a paradise ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55392]]></link><description><![CDATA[The weariest and most loathed worldly life That age, ache, penury, and imprisonment Can lay on nature, is a paradise To what we fear of death. -Measure for Measure.
