Perfect timing. The ending of that poem alluded me. I’m glad to have found this interpretation. We agree.

We all long for a cause worthy or our allegiance. I believe that the only cause worthy of our lives is in Christ. Thanks for the inspiration Brian

I’d say the best one yet but, a bit like reading the Bible, I say that of each book I’m reading at the time.
These words are both thought provoking and action inducing.
I’ll be printing this one for my ‘keepsakes’ file.
Brian, please keep on writing.
