Romans 12:21  Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Let us be intentional to not let evil overtake us. How quickly fear envelops our minds and despair burdens our hearts.  Yet, God’s goodness indwells His Holy Spirit in us, so we can overcome evil with good, fear with faith, and despair with joy. God’s goodness in us is Genesis “good”; it’s how He described His creation!  We are His good workmanship.  We are created for giving goodness, repaying evil with goodness, and living out God’s good plans for us. Let God’s goodness prevail over any evil or fear inside you.
