"to LIVE is to face off with EVIL to survive is Christ within, without, about" Very true..although the constant battles can be tiring sometimes, it's a relief to know we have an ever present source of strength in God. Nice poem. Kind regards, Mary Ann |

This is an anagram I have always pondered. It has many implications. To "live" is not merely to exist... or to survive. So many people never realize that. Their fight lost before it ever begins. Michael |
