TEMPTATION IS JUST SO TOUGH

I don't think
I'll ever truely
Get life rite
But I do try
Really hard
TEMPTATION IS JUST SO TOUGH
To overcome sometimes
I know the Bible Says
Resist the devil
And he must flee
But it's like he
Gets a hold on me
My spirit man
And soul screams no
But I loose
All self control
My body goes into
Auto pilot mode
I repeat to myself
Over and over again
Asking
What am I doing
The Holy Spirit
Convicts me
I can feel Him grieving
But wonce I'm on a roll
There's no stopping me
Consequences consume
My mind
My actions are
Completely out of character
As If there not mine
My flesh takes over
Repeating excuses
Saying loudly
In my mind
Everything will be just fine
I ask the flesh
Then why can't I stand
The way I'm feeling inside?
Even the little things
That I know
Are against God's will
Makes me feel remorse
How on earth
Did the flesh take control?
I feed my spirit
All the time,
Maby I'm just exhausted
From fighting
To do what's rite.
Getting caught
Or not
Trouble or Scot free
Doesn't give me
Any kind of peace
I have to hide
By myself with CHRIST
Apoligise
Ask for forgiveness
I'm honest with JESUS
Sometimes Repentance
Isn't easy
So I ask HIM for
Strength
Wisdom
And
Guidance
To help me to
No longer
Fall into temptation
I hate making mistakes
The Spirit within me
Begins to greave
I can't block it out anymore
God has softened
My heart
Made me sensitive
To His feelings
And I know that I'm chosen
So I don't want to disappoint HIM
But I guess
We live and learn
Maby that's what
Temporary live
On earth is for?
