Why a Blog on “Overcoming”?

When one is fighting to overcome something that has control of part or all of our life it can be a lonely struggle.  We often feel alone, we are the only one, no one understands.  We ask ourselves “am I the only one who struggles with this?” Romans 12:10 says “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” One should no feel alone in their struggle.  The purpose of this Blog is to have a public exposure of habitual or addictive struggles and serve as a resource for those looking for support.  There are many resources - medical, physical, spiritual available to us in our society today but the first action is to take the first step to engage.  That is sometimes very difficult because we are taking a very personal struggle and making it “public” in a sense.  We may be taking our deepest, darkest secret and having to be open about it in order to get the help we need.  This blog will be spiritually and scripturally based.  The Overcomes group here in Hampton Roads area meets weekly.  We will take these lessons and other items and post them here as a resource for those interested.  Recovery requires the rebuilding of mental, physical, emotional and spiritual disciplines in our lives.  In Genesis God tells Abram “I am your very great reward”.   We have to have a God centered recovery if it is to be what God really intends for us.  We are here to help and encourage you in your journey.
