He was willing to suffer and to be despised; do you dare to complain of anything? He had enemies and defamers; do you want everyone to be your friend, your benefactor? How can your patience be rewarded if no adversity tests it? How can you be a friend of Christ if you are not willing to suffer any hardship? Suffer with Christ and for Christ if you wish to reign with Him.  Had you but once entered into perfect communion with Jesus or tasted a little of His ardent love, you would care nothing at all for your own comfort or discomfort but would rejoice in the reproach you suffer; for love of Him makes a man despise himself.  ... Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ May 11, 2000 Concluding a series on the person of Jesus:  Jesus' good news, then, was that the Kingdom of God had come, and that he, Jesus, was its herald and expounder to men. More than that, in some special and mysterious was, he was the kingdom.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Or ever the knightly years were gone With the old world to the grave,  I was a king in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14353]]></link><description><![CDATA[Or ever the knightly years were gone With the old world to the grave,  I was a king in Babylon   And you were a Christian slave.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14353</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The art of life is to know how to enjoy a little and to endure very much. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64707]]></link><description><![CDATA[The art of life is to know how to enjoy a little and to endure very much.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most successful men have not achieved their distinction by having some new talent or opportunity presented to them.

For if the attribute "Christian" can be given sense from Eph. 2, then it means reconciled and reconciling, triumphant over walls and removing the debris, showing solidarity with the "enemy" and promoting not one's own peace of mind but "our peace"... When this peace is deprived of its social, national, or economic dimensions, when it is distorted or emasculated so much that only "peace of mind" enjoyed by saintly individuals is left -- then Jesus Christ is being flatly denied. To propose, in the name of Christianity, neutrality or unconcern on questions of international, racial, or economic peace -- this amounts to using Christ's name in vain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sylphs and ondines And the sea-kings and queens  Long ago, long ago, on the waves built a city, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60481]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sylphs and ondines And the sea-kings and queens  Long ago, long ago, on the waves built a city,   As lovely as seems    To some bard in his dreams,     The soul of his latest love-ditty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was lawyers nominated, but nothing would happen.

A certain set of buildings, a glimpsed, smudged window-view across a schoolyard, a musty aroma sniffed behind a garage when you were a child, all of which come crowding in upon your latter-day senses -- those are pungent things and vivid, even consoling.
