Overcomer

Hey guys, so I have had a huge crisis in my family. My grandpa passed away on April 9 @ 3:20 pm. It will be a long process of healing and heartbreak, but eventually we will pull through. An overcomer is someone who can trudge through, no matter what the situation is. Some overcomes use different methods to get though a tough time, personally, I use my faith and relationship with God. If we trust Him, then why worry at all? If God knows what is right for us, then why ever be afraid? Am I right? If you find out that a family member is dying, what should your reaction be? Panic, selfishness, and anger? Those are the wrong answer. I know it may seem hard not to kick and scream when you hear bad news, but if YOU know that God will take care of things, then there is no reason to panic. As of this moment, my grandpa is in heaven, where he is happy and free from suffering. And you know what? Even though I will miss him so much…. I am happy that he is free from suffering, and despite human selfishness, I am happy. So again, what does it mean to overcome for me? I am an overcomer through Christ. "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13 - Hailey
