Overcome evil with good.

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Romans 12:21

Disagreements occur

but if I am not careful

the pain will smolder

into resentment of another

but to love as I should

I must overcome evil with good

Temptations alluring

are instantly available right now

and in a private moment

I must enter the battle

to be as holy as I could

I must overcome evil with good

Called to holiness

I am a believer

given Christ’s righteousness

I can be a winner

my will surrendered as I would

He can overcome evil with good

Led by the Spirit

now a child of God

I surrender my thinking

to the direction of His Word

regardless of my feeling or mood

I live to overcome evil with good
