Overcomer’s Playlist
It may be because my husband is a musician, but music speaks to me. I do not have any musical talent myself – I truly wish I did! But several have caught me singing at the top of my lungs while securely behind the closed windows of my Jeep.
“Hey! I saw you driving the other day and you were rockin’ out!” a friend said. “Yeah. It’s my one woman concert. Thankfully, God knows I can’t sing and doesn’t care,” I replied with a sheepish grin.

The lyrics and the melodies of certain songs can add to my joyous mood or minister to me when I’m struggling.
I’ve discovered several songs that keep me motivated to stay strong and fight. I call this list of songs my Overcomer’s Playlist. I’ve shared this list with others who struggle and decided putting it here on my web site would be a way to share it with anyone who needs it. ENJOY!

Music plays a great part of my writing and journaling. A lot of times I use my oil lamp when writing at the apartment.
I use my fountain pen when I write and when finished I either type it into my computer and a lot of times use Dragon Naturally Speaking, which I love, hope to get new version for Christmas. Been using it for about 7 years.
Again, thanks for sharing,

Great article on the overcomer’s playlist! So few writers write about the impact of music to your spirit. Music speaks to me like scripture passages. There are songs you have introduced to me that I would not have been exposed to if it wasn’t for you. I hear the songs on the Fish all the time. I never would have known David Crowder. Your blog is so inspirational. I love reading it.
The songs chosen were ministry to soul! May God bless your journey on this mission!
Thank you, Melony! Somehow music eases our souls and opens our hearts. This music makes my heart sing!
So true, Melony music Seems to
Be what helps you over come, Or remind
You of what you have overcome.
love your music play list you shared.
don’t worry my friend I’ll be the car next to you singing
As well, because it’s the only place I feel comfortable singing at
Alone in my car. .
grateful for the hymns.
