The first year of my divorce was brutal. My world was collapsing around me. My brother gave me a couple of Christian music CDs and they became my shelter from my storms. I recently heard a powerful song, Overcomer*, by Mandisa. It reminded me how Christ gives me all the strength I need to overcome any difficulty–both then and now.  I hope it also reminds you that you are never walking alone through life’s challenges. Christ is with you every step of the way giving you everything you need to persevere!

Whatever it is you may be going through
I know He’s not gonna let it get the best of you

You’re an overcomer
Stay in the fight ’til the final round
You’re not going under
‘Cause God is holding you right now
You might be down for a moment
Feeling like it’s hopeless
That’s when He reminds You
That you’re an overcomer
You’re an overcomer*

“He who sings prays twice.” – St. Augustine
