Flesh Vs. Soul

Win Against Sin

Flesh Vs. Soul
Photo by Priscilla Du Preez ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ on Unsplash

My flesh keeps pushing away what my soul needs

Come help me breathe

In a hard fight between what my flesh craves and the healing I need

The same feeling keeps coming up again

But my flesh finds comfort in sins

Not trying to justify

My soul stills unsatisfied

Come quench its thirst

You said seek You first

But my mind gets distracted

The devil keeps attacking

Letting him win is not satisfactory

Iโ€™ll stop giving into sin

Focusing on Your plan

Choosing you so I can finally win
