There are no other examples of this usage in contemporary Judaism, but Jesus always addressed God in this way. The others perhaps regarded it as child's talk, a form of expression too disrespectful to be so used. But for Jesus, abba expressed the filial intimacy he felt toward his Father. As the divine Son of the Father, Jesus enjoyed a unique relationship with him, and his mission in the world consisted in opening up the blessings of sonship to those who believe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6261</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Politeness is only one half good manners and the other half good lying. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26355]]></link><description><![CDATA[Politeness is only one half good manners and the other half good lying.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make me to see't; or at the least so prove it That the probation bear no hinge nor loop  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12764]]></link><description><![CDATA[Make me to see't; or at the least so prove it That the probation bear no hinge nor loop  To hang a doubt on--or woe upon thy life!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commonly we say a Judgment falls upon a Man for something in him we cannot abide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23547]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commonly we say a Judgment falls upon a Man for something in him we cannot abide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thus sung the shepherds till th' approach of night, The skies yet blushing with departing light,  When falling dews ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3568]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thus sung the shepherds till th' approach of night, The skies yet blushing with departing light,  When falling dews with spangles deck'd the glade,   And the low sun had lengthened every shade.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yes, definitely.

You would be surprised if you knew how soon one begins to feel the shortness of the tether: of how many things, even in middle life, we have to say, "No time for that", "Too late now" and "Not for me". But Nature herself forbids you [young people] to share that experience. A more Christian attitude, which can be attained at any age, is that of leaving futurity in God's hands.
