Paul, too, used this expression, but he placed alongside it a parallel form of words, "in Christ" or "in Christ Jesus". Where we find these words used we are being reminded of the intimate union with Christ which makes the Christian life an eternal life lived in the midst of time. The deeper shade of meaning would often be conveyed to our minds if we translated the phrase "in communion with Christ". But, Paul's Christ mysticism is saved from the introverted individualism of many forms of mysticism by his insistence that communion with Christ is also communion with all who are Christ's.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3143]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature is beneficent.

We allowed you a charade of trivial freedoms in order to avoid making those impositions on you that are in the end both the training ground and proving ground for true independence. We pronounced you strong when you were still weak in order to avoid the struggles with you that would have fed your true strength. We proclaimed you sound when you were foolish in order to avoid taking part in the long, slow, slogging effort that is the only route to genuine maturity of mind and feeling. Thus, it was no small anomaly of your growing up that while you were the most indulged generation, you were also in many ways the most abandoned to your own meager devices by those into whose safe-keeping you had been given.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5976</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are moments, I'll be home cooking or something, and it comes to me all at once, and I can't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29916]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are moments, I'll be home cooking or something, and it comes to me all at once, and I can't believe it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29916</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When love is gone, there's always justice.
