DNA

Pretty sure this is from Priscilla Shirer Bible Study book

Using your own grit and personal resolution to force changes in your behavior is not only exhausting to maintain but nearly always proves to be nothing more than a temporary fix. Inevitable relapses churn up into a never-ending cycle of disappointment, frustration, self-hatred, along with other unhealthy emotions. Lasting change - the kind that frees you to walk within rhythms of grace, fueled by the power of God - must stem from the inside, not the outside. Despite your sinful deficiencies, which each of us shares, trust yourself to His care and cooperate with Him in the ways He's instructed. The DNA is there. Trust Him to fashion your behaviors in the image of Christ.
