George Smith says:

An excellent question! I think that there are as many answers as there
are people in the world. Every action you take, every word you say,
every word you write comprises your "works". When done with Gods Grace
it is counted good works. It is an attitude to life in the world you
find yourself in. I think that you most probably won't be aware of it
happening. Most of the Saints didn't. It involves all the "graces",
such as humility, agape, etc.. It is the "spiritual life" as described
by Maria Harris of Andover Newton:

"A life of dwelling at the heart of mystery with no answers at all, not
one - and with unshakable certainty."

Or Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass:

"I exist as I am, that is enough. If no other in the world be aware, I
sit content. And if each and all be aware, I sit content."

There are endless examples.

George
