My Willer Don't will

I preached from Romans 7 this morning. It's the spot where Paul talks about not being able to do what he wants and only doing what he doesn't want to do. A Little light hearted but I hope it captures the scripture.


 

 
My willer don’t will
and my don’ter won’t don’t.
My doer won’t do
and won’ter don’t won’t.
 
I don’t know what
has come over me.
When I try to do right
it’s the wrong thing I see.
 
My willpower is
always doing fine,
but my won’tpower
is on the decline.
 
I’m a wretched man
this I must admit.
When I want to go
I just have to quit.
 
Who can save me from
this dreadful state.
Only Jesus Christ
on whom I must wait.

I will...I will not...only the Lord knows what I should do and be with patience and wait for His word.

It's hard when everything does not go your way, some days are just like that. That is when I say oh...dear jesus.
