I'm my own worst enemy.
Having constant battles between my heart & mind.
I know better but I don't do so.
My focus is not in-focus and it's driving me insane.
I easily let trivial things consume me to the point I'm either enraged or in tears feeling my heart break.
It's a travesty.
I know God is displeased with me.
He gave me wisdom beyond my years like He did for Solomon.
But I don't tap into it enough to keep me from indulging in life's daily lusts.
My heart is good and my intentions are never malicious.
I just have this bad habit of following my flesh's desires rather than that of my spirit's.
And yes I know I'm human and being so means I'm going to make mistakes.
It's just tough for me to use that as an excuse every-time when I know my will to be better would be stronger if I prayed a little harder.
You give life to what you think and I have a few things that need to die.
I can't keep holding myself back by being in my own way all the time.
God have your way with me.
I surrender to your will and ways.
For I know by doing so I'll no longer be in ******* by my mistakes.
And be able to live a life filled with abundant blessings because of your favor and grace.
