A Santri story: Working With God
A Santri who also a farmer purchases an old, run-down, abandoned farm in
nJombang with plans to turn it into a thriving enterprise. The fields are grown
over with weeds, the farmhouse is falling apart, and the fences are collapsing
all around.
During his first day of work, Pak Kyai, his teacher, stops by to bless the
mans work, saying, May you and God work together to make this the farm of
your dreams! A few months later, Pak Kyai stops by again to call on his
santri. Lo and behold, its like a completely different place the farm house
is completely rebuilt and in excellent condition, there are plenty of cattle
and other livestock happily munching on feed in well-fenced pens, and the
fields are filled with crops planted in neat rows. Amazing! Pak Kyai says.
Look what God and you have accomplished together!
Yes, Pak Kyai, says his santri, but remember what the farm was like when God
was working it alone!
