Item: We Overcome [Original Composition]

Have you ever felt inspired to write, sing,
create something?
I have, and it changed my life.
Some people believe in coincidence.
I do not.
How many times has the Lord used YOU to change YOU?
Yes, it happens to me too.
So, there's this is one time.

One time in my life,
I used to be afraid.
I was afraid of a lot of things.
The dark terrified me and being alone was overwhelming.
I could not walk from point A to point B
without looking over my shoulder to see,
Who or what could be following me.
But there's this one time.

One time I opened scripture,
Revelation 12:11 looked back at me.
My guitar fell into my lap
And I wrote my first song.
I did not believe in a single word I wrote.
Was it hypocritical to have written down these notes?
I did not believe in it.
Not the least bit...
Because I was still afraid.
However, there was this one time.

One time, about two years later,
I sat down to collect all the songs I had written.
One, two, five, seven songs appeared before me.
My guitar saw what I was doing and decided to join.
I came across this song and start to play.
And to the melody came back to me as I started to sway.
Suddenly..
I stopped.
I could not hold in my tears any longer.
Here I stood, so much stronger.
He had spoken to me,
Through me,
And promised that He would take care of me.
He removed those fears,
He replaced them with strength.
And smiled,
The one times have became many,
Where are your fears now?
There aren't any.
