Paul writes candidly throughout the Scripture. Perhaps his most honest writing comes in Romans 7. Paul cannot overcome his weakness. Paul does not understand his weakness saying..."good he seeks to do he does not" and "that which he seeks not to do he does." Can we not relate to this? Good left undone. Bad habits done. Paul puts his finger on the human condition. Here is the passage...
"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me."
