Neither canst thou be delivered or eased by any remedy or comfort; but so long as it pleaseth God, thou oughtest to bear it. For God will have thee learn to suffer tribulation without comfort, and that thou subject thyself wholly to Him, and by tribulation become more humble. No man hath so cordial a feeling of the Passion of Christ, as he that hath suffered the like himself. The Cross therefore is always ready, and everywhere waits for thee. Thou canst not escape it, whithersoever thou runnest; for wheresoever thou goest, thou carriest thyself with thee, and shalt ever find thyself. Both above and below, without and within, which way so ever thou dost turn thee, everywhere thou shalt find the Cross; and everywhere of necessity thou must hold fast patience, if thou wilt have inward peace, and enjoy an everlasting crown.  ...Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ June 8, 1996 Feast of Thomas Ken, Bishop of Bath & Wells, Hymnographer, 1711  The charm of the words of great men, those grand sayings which are recognized as true as soon as heard, is this, that you recognize them as wisdom which has passed across your own mind. You feel that they are your own thoughts come back to you, else you would not at once admit them. "All of that has floated across me before, only I could not say it, and did not feel confident enough to assert it: or had not conviction enough to put it into words." Yes, God spoke to you what He did to them: only, they believed it, said it, trusted the Word within them; and you did not. Be sure that often when you say, "It is only my own poor thought, and I am alone," the real correcting thought is this: "Alone, but the Father is with me, and therefore I can live that lonely conviction.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He cited the safety of the people because the church was dumping a large amount of traffic onto Colonial Boulevard. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37458]]></link><description><![CDATA[He cited the safety of the people because the church was dumping a large amount of traffic onto Colonial Boulevard.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37458</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't seem to realize that a poor person who is unhappy is in a better position than a rich ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19805]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't seem to realize that a poor person who is unhappy is in a better position than a rich person who is unhappy.

And we are ever saying, "That be far from Thee, Lord!" We are careful, in our unbelief, over the divine dignity, of which He is too grand to think. Better pleasing to God ... is the audacity of Job, who, rushing into His presence, and flinging the door of His presence-chamber to the wall, like a troubled -- it may be angry -- but yet faithful child, calls aloud in the ear of Him whose perfect Fatherhood he has yet to learn, "Am I a sea or a whale, that Thou settest a watch over me?"... The devotion of God to His creatures is perfect; He does not think about Himself, but about them; He wants nothing for Himself, but finds His blessedness in the outgoing of blessedness. Ah! it is a terrible -- shall it be a lonely glory, this? We will draw near with our human response, our abandonment of self in the faith of Jesus. He Lives Himself to us -- shall we not give ourselves to Him? Shall we not give ourselves to each other whom He loves?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a muscular energy in sunlight corresponding to the spiritual energy of wind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43866]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a muscular energy in sunlight corresponding to the spiritual energy of wind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43866</guid></item></channel></rss>
