/*I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but 
what I hate I do. -- Romans 7:15*/

We know but we don't do. We know God doesn't want His people to be 
alcoholics, yet some cannot seem to escape alcohol. We know that God 
wants us morally pure, yet some cannot give up impure thoughts or 
relationships. I could keep going with examples and sooner or later I 
would list something that identifies you and that identifies me.

What's wrong with us? Why are we so helpless?

Let me suggest to you that knowing will never result in doing until 
Jesus occupies that helpless place in our souls that can't get it right, 
no matter how hard we try. Jesus didn't come to heal the healthy. He 
came to empower us helpless people, those of us who know, like Paul did, 
that we can't get it right no matter how hard we try.

Be encouraged!
Dwight
