Rescued

What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body doomed to death?  Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Rms.7:25

Paul writes of struggle with his fleshly desires. He concludes that, by himself, his case is hopeless. However, with help from Jesus he is victorious.

Paul's admission can be heard in any therapy group today. Nothing has changed in two thousand years. I've said as much myself. The good news is that the antidote is the same as well. Keeping pressed into Jesus is the only way I have to walk the talk.  He rescues me.

Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Saint Augustine, please pray for me.
