I'm not ashamed of the One I love
Resolve.

"How hard a thing it is to purify and make meet for glory, a spirit born in sin and conceived in iniquity, prone to evil as the sparks fly upward, but to all good unwilling. A soil that bears indigenous every bitter and unwholesome weed, but will only be cultured into fruitfulness by toil and care, favoured by the dews of heaven, and the sunbeams of celestial grace"
Taken from 'The Pastor's daughter" by E. Payson
[I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good. Romans 7:21]

Dear Lord, help me to be like Ezra the scribe - to seek You before doing, to do before I teach and to acknowledge that I can do all these things only because 'the good hand of the Lord is upon me' and not otherwise lest I fall.
'For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the Law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach statutes and ordinances in Israel' (Ezra 7:10)
