Psalm 97

Verse 11...
"Light is sown for the righteous,
and joy for the upright in heart."

 
Sometimes I feel like I'm living under a dense fog, dragging my feet through a thick mire... lacking that light and joy described in this verse. Only sin can have that drugging effect on a Christian's life, and I yearn to be free of its weighty burdens. The process of sanctification is such a slow process! 

Romans 7:22-25a...
"I delight in the law of God, in my inner being, 
but I see in my members another law 
waging war against the law of my mind 
and making me captive 
to the law of sin that dwells in my members. 
Wretched man that I am!
Who will deliver me from this body of death? 
Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord!"
