Surrender to Life
Poem – Andrew Norton
Mark 9:33-37
Have you come
to the end
of yourself
where
even
the white flag
lies
still
on the ground beside you?
This
ending you
knew,
feared,
dreaded,
struggled against
and
ultimately
defeated you
is nothing more than a
lie.
The
truth
of
all
life is:
the
seed must
die.
The
poor
in spirit
know what
happiness
is.
Those who fall
to the ground;
the humble,
stand
strong.
