Impatience is problem which affects many people. We all know that we should not lose our patience, but all of our knowledge doesn't give us the power to do what we have to do. It doesn't give us the power to do that which is right to do, that which must be done.
Why? Your will is in bondage. Haven't you often done something wrong and wished you hadn't done it? It fills you with remorse as you wonder, "How can I of all people have engaged in such debauchery?"
That is why you are sometimes filled with apathy, because you have gotten so used to doing wrong things that often it doesn't even bother you.
You have to ask,”Who is my will serving? And if it is serving who should be served? And if it isn’t serving who should be served, is it really my will?
Your basic problem is willful, moral departure from the truth. All humans have willfully and morally rebelled against God and that leads to intellectual difficulties with God.
God's Word says, "The fool has said in his heart there is no God." He has not said it in his head. If he had said it in his head, we could have done something about you. Since you say it in your heart, you have a heart problem. I can't do anything for you. But God can. The Truth Can. The Son can.
Are you enslaved?
