We shall overcome.....

Luke 3:22…and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, “You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased" (NASB)

The statement has been memorialize and become synonymous with Dr. King. As well as one of the lasting legacy of a great snapshot moment of Dr. King’s insightful rhetoric, and analytical conclusion drawn about man’s inner soul. We shall overcome denotes an expectation of something happening, not that is happening right now, or whether it will happen during our time; just that it shall happen. These two things are what makes it difficult for us to keep going; the expectancy. We always desire to see the product of our labor, you know, for it to happen right now. Yet, we forget that others gave, so that we might have but never saw it in the physical form; only in the vision of future in there mind’s eye. However, we cannot seem to wrap our mental and spiritual consciousness around this concept. We must submit, to gain. Realizing expectation requires patience, endurance, determination, and willingness to do today, so that tomorrow’s generation might have; legacy. The irony is this; we cannot endure this race at all, until we are ready to be our authentic selves. Until we are authentic with self, we cannot give God our all today. When we own who God made us to be, and begin walking in him, as we should.We will see what happen with Jesus, for us.  When he accepted his call in public, and became a prophet without honor amongst his peers, his family, elders, and others …he got this - and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven,“You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased." …We too shall hear, from the Father – in You I am well-pleased– in our life. When we are willing to step outside of who others think we are, to who we are. See He, the Father, is searching for the heart that is destine, and willing to own its truth, regardless of the trials, the pitfalls, and the pains before them. Willing to cry out, against the normalcy of man’s order because the heart tells you, this is not the way for you but the road never traveled is. For us to overcome, we have to be willing to be the sacrificial lamb that is slain, literally or metaphorically; because it is our difference that makes us great. But no one wants to be that, they just want to overcome, and receive. We shall overcome, when we decide to let go, and submit to the higher calling within ourselves; no matter what it is. For in there lies, our over coming in this life…We shall overcome is absolute for all times…we must choose to apply it…
