Romans 7:21-25

So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law; but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!

I'm currently going through Romans as my morning reading. This book is so fricken good. For the past several months, I've been going through the Gospels. After hearing so many good verses in STAND from Romans, I decided to go through it, and it was a great decision. When I stumble upon more good ones as my mornings go, I'll post them here.

It reminds me of the Flobot's track 'There's A War Going On For Your Mind.' All of us have these conflicting voices in our heads, not to be confused with Schizophrenia of course. It is kind of like that though. A spiritual Schizophrenia, maybe?

There is a war going on for our hearts, souls, and faithfulness. What is it that we are going to for peace? What do we run to when life gets rough?
