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[Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   We must be willing to accept the bitter ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7880]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Mary Sumner, Founder of the Mothers' Union, 1921   We must be willing to accept the bitter truth that, in the end, we may have to become a burden to those who love us. But it is necessary that we face this also. The full acceptance of our abjection and uselessness is the virtue that can make us and others rich in the grace of God. It takes heroic charity and humility to let others sustain us when we are absolutely incapable of sustaining ourselves. We cannot suffer well unless we see Christ everywhere, both in suffering and in the charity of those who come to the aid of our affliction.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Respectable men and women content with good and easy living are missing someof the most important things in life.

Surely that is not wholly true. It certainly must help us if we recognize that it is the presence of the Holy Spirit which creates a unity which we can never create.If men believe in the existence of this unity, they may begin to desire it, and desiring it to seek for it, and seeking it to find it. If, when they find it, they refuse to deny it, in due time, by ways now unsearchable, they will surely return to external communion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace is obtained by war. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50696]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace is obtained by war.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything you are against weakens you.
