I've poured my heart out at times praying for Him to change me, expressing how much I hate being that way, asking forgiveness for it, etc. Yet, I still struggle with these things. I may do alright in getting rid of those things for a while, but then something always happens and then I'm right back where I started.
I would think that sense these are things that the Lord would not want me to be, then He would enable me to get rid of them. Yet, I seem to be unable to do so.
Wouldn't we be enabled to overcome these things if we truly desire to do so and have asked His forgiveness for them and asked for His help? I would think so, but for some reason I keep struggling with them. What do you think?
