One Word
When the student is ready, the teacher appears.
When the heart is ready to listen and receive instruction, the answer comes... in one or two words.
To the one who is always chasing for the latest, and newest. To the one who is jack of all trade and master of none. To the one always getting bored with the same toy and never grow its roots deep enough to tap the well of wealth - "Focus"
To the one who is always busy working hard, too busy to enjoy the fruits of his labour. To the one who's swarmed with information overload. To the one who's always learning but no time to teach - "Do less"
To the one who has so much inside, wanting to yap and yap and yap. Either in frustration. Or he thinks he knows a lot - "Listen"
To the one who is so full of himself, who lives within his own box, whose view of the world is only through his eyes - "Empty Yourself"
To the one who is weigh down by the burdens of life, who is fighting, struggling against the tides of persecution - "Let Go". Go with the flow. Trust God to take over. All things work together for good to those who love Him.
To the info junky who buys every books, attends every seminars, who knows a lot and yet...his life is still the same - "Do it". We may not see what's beyond the horizon. God don't promise the sky is always blue. God don't promise we will not fall, or we will not be hurt. God don't promise there will not be trouble on our way. But He promises, "I will be there for you. "
When the moment of enlightenment comes, it wouldn't come in a lecture, in a loud voice, or in a thousand pages. It's just a simple word, whisper silently in your heart. When your heart is still, you will hear it.
Can you hear it now?
