The ragged pieces of ideas and thoughts of my attempt to live a life as a contemporary monastic in the urban city of Singapore..
I received a complain from my auntie's friend that May Ann shared Christ with her granddaughter when they were having dinner together at a family gathering. I don't know how to address the situation. I mean isn't it natural that when one knows something that one will do something about it. And when there's action, there's outcome. It is unfortunate that the outcome appears to be the complain when it is really that a little girl knows a little bit more about God.
We "Know" who God is and what He's about. We "Do" what He expects us to do and we'll "See" the outcome of our actions. That's what it is in a God empowered life. It is key for fulfilment and successful partnership with God.
However, we lived in a time where experience is so highly rated that we want to "See" first, then "Know" and after being convinced, "Do". Most of the time, it never reaches the "Doing" part because people are generally hard to convince. So everyone just basically sit back and watch. They See-NO-Do!
Don't be part of the 'watching' society. Know and Do, then we'll See. Miracles happen when we invest in doing what we know.
