RAKU-GAKI--always interesting

We become saints by living according to what God has given us, nothing more, nothing less. We often live in envy or jealousy of someone else’s life and in doing so miss our own life and vocation.

Hourglass

Ellis Potter, a Zen Buddhist who became a Christian and a worker at Francis Schaeffer's Christian retreat center, L'Abri, was fond of posing a thought experiment. Imagine asking ten non-Christians this question: "If you converted to Christianity today, do you think your life would be larger, fuller, richer, more attractive and creative, more involved with the people, circumstances, art, and culture around you? Or do you think your life would be smaller, narrower, more withdrawn, judgmental, and negative, less winsome and creative, less involved with the people, art, circumstances, and culture around you?" The point of the exercise, of course, is to consider how they would respond.
