But I loved them better and better -- and still I knew how little was my love for them compared to Christ's. It is easy enough for a man to be honest and a "Good Christian" and keeper of "the moral law", when he has his own little room, his purse well filled -- when he is well shod and well fed. It is far less easy for a man who has to live from day to day, roaming from city to city, from factory to factory. It is far less easy for someone just out of jail, with nothing to wear but old down-at-the-heels shoes and a shirt in rags. All of a sudden, I understood our Lord's words: "I was in prison ... and you visited me not." All these men, lazy, outside the law, starving: these failures of all kinds -- they were dear to Christ -- they were Christ, waiting in prison for someone to lean over Him -- and if we were true Christians, we would do them every kindness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[States that rise quickly, just as all the other things of nature that are born and grow rapidly, cannot have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43715]]></link><description><![CDATA[States that rise quickly, just as all the other things of nature that are born and grow rapidly, cannot have roots and ramifications; the first bad weather kills them]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was so proud of the heart we showed.
