We can relate with Paul, "For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want but do the very thing I hate." Our bodies/flesh crave things that are not good for them. We are living in broken and sinful bodies. We all have sin trying to work its way in. There is always evil tempting and trying to get us off the correct path.

We tend to minimize sin/temptation if it seems small to us. Sin is sin to God.

Ask yourself, "Who am I and how much like Jesus am I?"

Every action comes from one of two places/sources:

1. Sin in the flesh

2. Walking in the Spirit

We should want to be sourced by the Spirit.

This Week:

1. Read Romans 7 each day.

2. Look back at your life and ask, "Where did that come from?" Ask for your eyes to be opened.

A Prayer you can say, "Father, forgive me. Help me with the power of your Spirit within me to stop doing that thing I do not want to do."
