Romans 7:14-24 "For we know that the Law is spiritual; but I am fleshly, sold under sin. For what I am working out I do not know. For what I wish, this I do not practice; but what I hate is what I do. However, If what I do not wish is what I do, I agree that the Law is fine. But now the one working it out is no longer I, but sin that resides in me. For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, there dwells nothing good; for ability to wish is present with me, but ability to work out what is fine is not [present]. For the good that I wish, I do not do, but the bad that I do not wish, is what I practice. If, now, what I do not wish is what I do, the one working it out is not longer I, but the sin dwelling in me."

"I find, then, this law in my case: that when I wish to do what is right, what is bad is present with me. I really delight in the law of God according to the man I am within, but I behold in my members another law warring against the law of my mind and leading me captive to sin's law that is in my members. Miserable man that I am! Who will rescue me from the body undergoing this death? Thanks to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So, then, with [my] mind, I myself am a slave to God's law, but with [my] flesh, to sin's law."

A little confusing to read, but once understood, it is a rather "telling" scripture.

I don't know why, but I find comfort in this scripture. Maybe because it explains the struggle I am constantly feeling inside, and knowing that God truly understands this never-ending battle makes me feel a little less "evil."

Does anyone understand this feeling?
