If life be long I will be glad,  That I may long obey; If short--yet why should I be sad  To soar to endless day? Christ leads me through no darker rooms  Than He went through before; He that unto God's kingdom comes,  Must enter by this door. Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet  Thy blessed face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet,  What will Thy glory be! Then shall I end my sad complaints,  And weary, sinful days; And join with the triumphant saints,  To sing Jehovah's praise. My knowledge of that life is small,  The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all,  And I shall be with him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I tell the tale as it was told to me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48747]]></link><description><![CDATA[I tell the tale as it was told to me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48747</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are a lot of options out there that advertisers now have besides the 30-second commercial on network television, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30403]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are a lot of options out there that advertisers now have besides the 30-second commercial on network television,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30403</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He acknowledges that he does have an alcohol problem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30020]]></link><description><![CDATA[He acknowledges that he does have an alcohol problem.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Seven principles for eradicating selfish ambition in the fellowship: 6. the ministry of proclaiming   Where Christians live together ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8610]]></link><description><![CDATA[Seven principles for eradicating selfish ambition in the fellowship: 6. the ministry of proclaiming   Where Christians live together the time must ultimately come when in some crisis one person will have to declare God's Word and will to another. It is inconceivable that the things that are of utmost importance to each individual should not be spoken by one to another. It is unchristian consciously to deprive another of the one decisive service we can render to him...   The more we learn to allow others to speak the Word to us, to accept humbly and gratefully even severe reproaches and admonitions, the more free and objective will we be in speaking ourselves. The humble person will stick to truth and love. He will stick to the Word of God and let it lead him to his brother...   Reproof is unavoidable. God's Word demands it when a brother falls into open sin. Where defection from God's Word in doctrine or life imperils the fellowship... the word of admonition and rebuke must be ventured. Nothing can be more cruel than the tenderness that consigns another to his sin. Nothing can be more compassionate than the severe rebuke that calls a brother back from the path of sin. It is a ministry of mercy, an ultimate offer of genuine fellowship, when we allow nothing but God's Word to stand between us, judging and succoring.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Count not him among your friends who will retail your privacies to the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17900]]></link><description><![CDATA[Count not him among your friends who will retail your privacies to the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you understand life----you understand life's potential. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25029]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you understand life----you understand life's potential.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25029</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By necessity, by proclivity, and by delight, we all quote.
