Overcoming – to gain the superiority; to get the better of, overcome difficulties
Every one of us in life at one time or another had to overcome something. A big one that everyone has had to deal with at one time or another is FEAR. Whether it was a fear of heights, speaking in public, fear of being confined or in crowded places, fear of thunder and lightning, and a host of others. To become successful and live a life of thriving you will have to overcome many things to enter that life of overflow. Thriving – Overcome and then Overflow. http://www.miraclebook.net
It is amazing how God has set the tone for us from birth. The way to tackle anything is to take it one step at a time. When a baby starts to learn to walk, they take one step at a time. Sure, they fall but eventually, they can take a least 2-3 steps at one time before they fall again. Parents will help them back up and set them on course to make more steps. The same thing applies in adulthood you must take it one step at a time. Thriving – Overcome and then Overflow
If you a looking to become a librarian you will need to get a bachelor’s degree, then a master’s degree in library science preferably from an American Library Association (ALA) program.

Whatever you are looking to overcome the bible with God’s word is the authority on it:
Anxiety & Worry – “Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.” – Deuteronomy 31:6
Depression – “The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.” – Psalm 34:15 & 17
Discouragement & Despair – “Therefore we do not become discouraged [spiritless, disappointed, or afraid]. Though our outer self is [progressively] wasting away, yet our inner self is being [progressively] renewed day by day. For our momentary, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness]!” – 2 Corinthians 4:16-17
Fear – “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” – Psalms 27:1
Insecurity – “Fear thou not; for I am with thee be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” – Isaiah 41:10
Stress – “Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” – Philippians 4:6
Temptations – “In the day when I called, you answered me; and You strengthened me with strength (might and inflexibility to temptation) in my inner self.” – Psalms 138:3
God has planned an abundant overflow life for all of us. He said so in his word, “The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it [a]overflows).” – John 10:10. We just must do our part which is to overcome and then the overflow will stream like rivers of water.
