Is it to be a burden to the animal which wears it? It is just the opposite: it is to make its burden light. Attached to the oxen in any other way than by a yoke, the plow would be intolerable; worked by means of a yoke, it is light. A yoke is not an instrument of torture; it is an instrument of mercy. It is not a malicious contrivance for making work hard; it is a gentle device to make hard labor light. [Christ] knew the difference between a smooth yoke and a rough one, a bad fit and a good one... The rough yoke galled, and the burden was heavy; the smooth yoke caused no pain, and the load was lightly drawn. The badly fitted harness was a misery; the well fitted collar was "easy". And what was the "burden"? It was not some special burden laid upon the Christian, some unique infliction that they alone must bear. It was what all men bear: it was simply life, human life itself, the general burden of life which all must carry with them from the cradle to the grave. Christ saw that men took life painfully. To some it was a weariness, to others failure, to many a tragedy, to all a struggle and a pain. How to carry this burden of life had been the whole world's problem. And here is Christ's solution: "Carry it as I do. Take life as I take it. Look at it from my point of view. Interpret it upon my principles. Take my yoke and learn of me, and you will find it easy. For my yoke is easy, sits right upon the shoulders, and therefore my burden is light.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7126</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[The late-breaking action in the Houston criminal trial came moments after Harmon ruled that the jurors do not have to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29661]]></link><description><![CDATA[[The late-breaking action in the Houston criminal trial came moments after Harmon ruled that the jurors do not have to unanimously agree on one] corrupt persuader ... acted knowingly and with corrupt intent.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29661</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only one who is wiser than anyone is everyone. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1268]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only one who is wiser than anyone is everyone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1268</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[First we make our habits, then our habits make us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18512]]></link><description><![CDATA[First we make our habits, then our habits make us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man with an idea has at least two or three followers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16315]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man with an idea has at least two or three followers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16315</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Meux Benson, Founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, 1915  Every man has in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6610]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Richard Meux Benson, Founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, 1915  Every man has in his own experience some knowledge of the perplexing uncertainty of this whirligig of time. Yet with his best thought, and largest opportunity, and the application of his highest ability, he cannot penetrate far. But the Christ of God unfolds both its meaning, and its order. He shows that the goal is freedom, and the guidance love. In this way Christ appears direct to the spirit of man, not by its special acquirements, or special ability, but through its common needs and common tasks.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are too smart to pay the doctor, you had better be too smart to get ill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20460]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are too smart to pay the doctor, you had better be too smart to get ill.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20460</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Water, air, and cleanness are the chief articles in my pharmacy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26736]]></link><description><![CDATA[Water, air, and cleanness are the chief articles in my pharmacy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/26736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The signing of Chad is outstanding because he sets the tone for our football team and the guys up front. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32354]]></link><description><![CDATA[The signing of Chad is outstanding because he sets the tone for our football team and the guys up front.

His insistence on taking seriously the gropings of all men for the truth about their lives must be allowed to remind the ecumenical movement that the word oikoumene is Greek not for "the Church" but for "the whole inhabited world". The ecumenical movement is more than Christian patriarchs kissing. Christian unity means the unity of mankind in finding and obeying God. Tillich can teach us that the Church must not shut its door to celebrate a family reunion while a single child of God remains outside.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7433</guid></item></channel></rss>
