We shall we shall
We shall overcome
We shall we shall
We shall overcome....
I remember these words from Sunday school as a child.
I don't remember the rest of the song, but I do remember it was something to do with overcoming the stuff that happens in life through God's help.
Overcome, See It!
David
Used a stone
And his trust in God
Young man
Falling out of the window
Lived again
Elijah
Called out in Faith and Exhaustion
And Ravens came
Rachel cried
A prayer to God
A son was born to led the church
Daniel
Lion's Den
Prayer and life gained
Lydia
Paid Attention to Paul
Saved and became a Helper of God's people
Gideon
Tested the Lord
One of Israel's Judges
Elisha
Lifted his eyes
Saw angels gathered round
Overcomers
Depending on God
Amazement
Growth
Service
Change
Overcomers

This is a five minute Friday post. the word prompt is brought to us by Miss Kate over at Five Minute Friday. What is Five Minute Friday?
Well it's a party of a group of like minded folks who gather on Friday
to do a five minute free write around a singular word. AND THEN (and
this is the most important part) we take the time to offer up
encouragement to each other on this writing journey. It's fun, though
it's not always easy, but it is always good. Come join us won't you?
You are always welcome.

Many good reminders that God overcomes a lot that we as humans see as the end. - Lori

Deep in my heart,
I do believe
that we shall overcome,
some
day.

DeleteI'm so glad I stopped by again! I commented last night, but something must have happened . . . I was tired. ;)
ReplyDeleteAnnette, I so appreciated this post. The many, many reminders God placed in His word—(once-) living examples of people who have overcome—fills me with hope. I need to remember these people the next time I feel overwhelmed with the things happening in my life.
Jeanne, thanks for coming back...so glad I could give you hope. :) hope is so necessary.
DeleteThank you for the reminder that God continues to help us overcome.
