Yes, but “For I do not understand what I am doing; for I am not practicing what I want to do, but I do the very thing I hate. For I know the good does not dwell in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. (Romans 7:14-25).

I would not call it a desire... I'm just genuinely and generally kind... I do as much as I can but I do not actively seek to do the most I can as if could be done "by desire" and equally important, I do not go around doing shitty stuff to anybody, that also counts a whole lot...

I was drug-up to be good. I better be. (binging tv show.. have southern phrases stuck in my head today)

Yes. Very much so. Helping others makes me happy. Especially when i see how happy it makes them

Desire, yes. Always succeed? No. But, first, do no harm.

Yes and I'm getting better at it. God Bless

Do you desire to do good?

  Yep, it gives me some sense of peace as I realize how miserable I am. Nice to understand why and that Romans chapter 7 lays it out for me…so I “get me”
