For how is one to appreciate the contrast of light's dawning hope if his soul has never trembled through the dark hours of a nightmare's watch? Or how can one prove God's faithfulness if he never is granted the privilege of wandering through a barren desert, where only pools of Christ's Presence can possibly provide survival? It is a great honor to be apportioned pain. Christ Himself, though God incarnate, learned obedience through what He suffered. Dare we assume that we as His children can be taught by any wiser or kinder instructor than the severity of unwanted pain? We dare not steel ourselves against our trials, running away from the fires where our pruned branches crumble to ashes. For if we escape those flames, we will risk barrenness of soul and will miss out on the beauty that only is born through the ashes of yesterday's grief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was thrown out of NYU for cheating-with the deans wife ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20807]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was thrown out of NYU for cheating-with the deans wife]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the early days all I hoped was to make a living out of what I did best.But, since there's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22358]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the early days all I hoped was to make a living out of what I did best.But, since there's no real market for masturbation I had to fall back onmy bass playing abilities.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maundy Thursday   We usually think of Jesus in the upper room as calmly and patiently preparing his disciples ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6375]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maundy Thursday   We usually think of Jesus in the upper room as calmly and patiently preparing his disciples for their coming crisis; only in the garden are we shown his deep anguish over what lies ahead for himself. But if this verse ("'They hated me without a cause." Ps. 69:4) occurred to Jesus as describing his enemies, surely he was also identifying with the rest of [Psalm 69] with its vivid description of overwhelming troubles and importune cries to God for deliverance. What in the upper room was still under the surface was openly expressed in the garden.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6375</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When the goose honk high, fair weather; when the goose honks low, foul weather ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61483]]></link><description><![CDATA[When the goose honk high, fair weather; when the goose honks low, foul weather]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When one door is closed, don't you know, another is open. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66907]]></link><description><![CDATA[When one door is closed, don't you know, another is open.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66907</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One encounter with Jesus Christ is enough to change you, instantly, forever. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6969]]></link><description><![CDATA[One encounter with Jesus Christ is enough to change you, instantly, forever.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6969</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The desire to economize time and mental effort in arithmetical computations, and to eliminate human liability to error is probably ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36601]]></link><description><![CDATA[The desire to economize time and mental effort in arithmetical computations, and to eliminate human liability to error is probably as old as the science of arithmetic itself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have to do more than just elect a new President if we truly want to change this country. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47243]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have to do more than just elect a new President if we truly want to change this country.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each one has to find his peace from within.
