Striving hard to survive, or do anything to escape. Lion's hunt in the wilderness to survive. Sometimes they even crave for their own race, but often times bizarre kinds of habitat are most of their prey. In Wikipedia, it is defined as "often prepare for this anticipated disruption by learning skills..." http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivalism. A Huge colony of animals and insects practice this skills to survive. Does this habitue does exist in a human race?... It does.
Strategically speaking, humans often engaged in this kind of system. I'm not referring to a real aspect of the situation. What I'm pointing out is a deeper meaning to the word survivalist. Its essence flows diffusely affecting the moral values of each one of us. Some people take these tactics as their last resort. Their only hope is to sacrifice something precious to them, even their own family. In Proverbs 14:12 (New International Version) New International Version (NIV) Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society says "There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end, it leads to death." Does destroying our own family is worth just to survive? Does malignant way of facing poverty be worth just to survive? There is a unique issue between the word of GOD and our own way of dealing this common task. Prostitution's, gambling, stealing, etc. Does any of these come from GOD?
Imagine this, you find yourself at the edge of the hill, hopelessly grabbing a piece of a branch striving to survive. Then all of a sudden you saw a light coming from heaven and hear a voice and says, "My precious child, I am the Lord your GOD. I know the pains and sufferings you've been dealing with. It's time to let go of that branch you are holding with, and I will carry you.." Will you trust that voice? Will you let go of that piece of branch that you are holding? I guess it's all up to us. Our faith in GOD will tell us what to do next. I hope someday somehow, letting go is the best way to ease all the pain and anxiety that we've been going through... not just to survive, but to have a better life.
