Overcome

Are you being overcome, or are you overcoming? 

We can be overcome by the evil in this world, or we can overcome evil with God’s goodness. 

The Apostle Paul wrote the church in Rome, encouraging them, saying, “Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.” (Romans 12:21, ESV). 

We can be overcome by evil, or we can overcome evil with good. 

May we overcome all evil with every goodness of God as we live out our faith. 

The Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost, (Proper 18): ”O Lord God, grant your people grace to withstand the temptations of the world, the flesh, and the devil, and with pure hearts and minds to follow you, the only God; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
