Doing...

Life (the gospel) is about doing. Knowing is important but we know in order that we might do. Knowledge for knowledge's sake is like art for art's sake. They become false gods without life because they loose the ability to become a means rather than an end. Doing encompasses our God-given gift to act. Each act changes the world around us. The three great spiritual gifts - faith, hope and charity - are not passive ideas. They exist in doing.
