It is just here that our awareness that Jesus is our contemporary and that Calvary is relevant to our present human situation ought to help us greatly. And that is not merely because in his relationships with others during his earthly life in Palestine Jesus exemplified all that I have tried to say about human relationships. In every genuine human encounter with another person we may become aware of Jesus, and meet with him. This may sound fanciful, but there is much in the Scriptures and in Christian experience which suggests that Jesus is frequently met in the traffic of person with person, provided that there is a genuine encounter between them. Jesus himself showed that for this to happen demands courage and a willingness to move from a life that is centred in itself. So if we are to pass out of that lonely world of isolation then we must be prepared to take the risks that are always involved when we allow persons to confront us as persons and do not regard them as things. Yet, dangerous though it may be to live in this way, it is the only way to live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6542</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27551]]></link><description><![CDATA[Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Disarm, disarm.

That glorious form, that light insufferable,  And that far-beaming blaze majesty, Wherewith he wont at Heaven's high council-table To sit the midst of Trinal Unity He laid aside, and, here with us to be.    Forsook the courts of everlasting day,  And chose with us a darksome house of mortal clay.  Say, Heavenly Muse, shall not thy sacred vein  Afford a present to the Infant God? Hast thou no verse, no hymn, or solemn strain,  To welcome him to this his new abode,  Now while the heaven, by the Sun's team untrod,    Hath took no print of the approaching light,  And all the spangled host keep watch in squadrons bright? See how from far upon the eastern road The star-led wizards haste with odours sweet! Oh, run! present them with thy humble ode, And lay it lowly at his blessed feet; Have thou the honour first thy Lord to greet,    And join thy voice unto the Angel Quire,  From out his secret altar touched with hallowed fire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry is the utterance of deep and heart-felt truth--the true poet is very near the oracle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46823]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poetry is the utterance of deep and heart-felt truth--the true poet is very near the oracle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46823</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We must always think about things, and we must think about things as they are, not as they are said ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44974]]></link><description><![CDATA[We must always think about things, and we must think about things as they are, not as they are said to be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She's never really even been off the farm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30744]]></link><description><![CDATA[She's never really even been off the farm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30744</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And all who told it added something new, and all who heard it, made enlargements too. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17908]]></link><description><![CDATA[And all who told it added something new, and all who heard it, made enlargements too.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A very valiant trencher-man. -Much Ado about Nothing.

The Bible characterizes men in such a state as "lost", and as being "without hope in the world"... And let no one suppose that such a term as "lost" is merely a bit of conventional theological jargon. It stands for a terrible reality, a reality which modern man in his modern predicament knows only too well from his own bitter experience. It gives rise to the voices of despair which haunt our radios, our newspapers, our fiction and poetry, our stage and screen, our doctors' offices, our hospital wards, our grisly nightmare of atomic war, and the conversation of common people who no sooner meet than they begin to bemoan the fate that has overtaken the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7438</guid></item></channel></rss>
