And when a Christian fails at something he ought to have done, it isn't just the failure that hurts -- there is also the knowledge that he has let Jesus down. And those little shortcomings of ours, that used to matter so little, compared with the glaring faults of others: we know now that our temper, or our gloom, or our selfishness, reflects on Jesus; and knowing that people are judging your Lord by you is not always a joyous thought to live with. Even the growing up to His measure is hard on a man: we have so little aptitude for such a transformation that it always means conflict, and often rebellion. And temptations hurt as they never did before: not just in the conscience, but in the heart. The assaults of temptation are not on our prudence now, or even on our morals, but on the love for Jesus. His love for us has made Him quite defenseless against our hurting Him, and so temptation is no longer an urge to do a bad thing but an urge to hurt a loving Person.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As always, victory finds a hundred fathers but defeat is an orphan. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60607]]></link><description><![CDATA[As always, victory finds a hundred fathers but defeat is an orphan.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60607</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The whole family is packed into one trap. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50509]]></link><description><![CDATA[The whole family is packed into one trap.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I pray the prayer the Easterners do, May the peace of Allah abide with you;  Wherever you stay, wherever ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48036]]></link><description><![CDATA[I pray the prayer the Easterners do, May the peace of Allah abide with you;  Wherever you stay, wherever you go,   May the beautiful palms of Allah grow;    Through days of labor, and nights of rest,     The love of Good Allah make you blest;      So I touch my heart--as the Easterners do,       May the peace of Allah abide with you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48036</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would be disingenuous if I said I wasn't concerned, ...
