He Is Still Working On Me To Make Me What I Ought To Be

Romans 7:15-20---For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

One of the greatest New Testament writers the Apostle Paul penned these words. In today's world, there are so many Christians who get crossed up, and one group points at the other and continues to play the blame game that started when man sinned in the beginning. Paul assured us that sometimes we yield ourselves not to do the good that we know we should do. When we don't do it is because of sin and if we confess our sin He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse. Thank You, Lord, that you love us in spite of our failures and continue to work on us to make us what you want us to be. I like Paul have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to do it, SO LORD HELP ME. I can't do anything without you.
