Thy Will To Obey

God, my Lord,
Unwilling I am not, Thy holy will to obey

But

It’s Nature’s force within me that I can’t
Overcome!

Demetrios . . . As a fellow mortal, your words are quite well-spoken. It is indeed quite impossible for any of us to be that "perfect person." Very Thought Provoking!! Best Wishes, Gary
