Romans 7:16-20
But if I do the very thing I do not want to do, I agree with the Law,
confessing that the Law is good.
So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.
For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not.
But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.

This may be a constant struggle while living on earth, but one thing's for
sure -- I must not let sin rule in myself. I won't be able to completely
eliminate it from my life, but I surely have to rise above it and cling on
to the good deeds God wants me to do.
I am focusing on my desire to establish my morning devotional time consistent
at 5am. The key is to go to sleep early the night before, but one things
leading to another, I still have not made it stick. So,
I am doing the very thing I do not want.
Lord, I realize this is due to my letting sin to have an edge. I want to
have a total shutout against sin when it comes to establishing my morning
devotional time with and for You. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
