Vivas In Deo, Live In God

Vivas in Deo (live in God)

Through thick and thin,
life goes on.
With strong faith in God,
hope assures like a light
along the path of life.

Moments of darkness,
moments of pains.
There's always a space
where God dwells.

It's a continuing cycle,
a taste of everything.
That life embraces within
the heart of every human being.

I call to mind heretofore,
the great Latin poet Virgil,
he once wrote, "trahit sua quemque voluptas" 
(everyone is drawn by his own desire)
and it's my desire:
to live in God
throughout my life.
