our will is weakened as a result of original sin

That's not what Scripture says.

"As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God." -- Romans 3:10-11

You are misinterpretating Paul. To understand what he is saying, read Psalm 5, where he is quoting from. Note, he is speaking of the WICKED, not ALL men. The wicked are so blinded that they will not turn to God - while the righteous DO seek out God.
