Don't be overcome by evil!!

" And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith." ( Galatians 6: 9-10 ) Have you ever been in a situation that no matter how much you did what was right, things continued to get worse? I have, and many times I wanted to stop doing what the Bible said and start doing what my flesh said. My flesh and ego tells me that I don't need these hassles! But the Holy Spirit reminds me that God brought me through those situations before, but I realized that he was working pride and arrogance out of me. Today, many of us are in situations where we work hard and can not get a raise or promotion. The state of the economy is that we are working more and have less. There is more month left at the end of our money, more people are asking for help, many are growing tired and the voice of doubt is speaking louder and louder. We are in situations where we are nice to people and respect them, yet feel like they treat us like dirt. If you are experiencing these situations, this e-mail is to encourage you to continue to do what the spirit of God requires of the Children of faith. God will work things out if you don't give up. However, it may not come in the way you expect it. Remember, " And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience experience; and experience, hope. And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us." ( Romans 5: 3-5 ) Therefore, " Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." ( Romans 12:21 )
