Your comment about the more you try to overcome a sin, the more you think you are a sinner. {I am paraphrasing what you wrote]. But, I see that as a rather normal thing as one grows closer to God. The sense of our unworthiness makes us a bit more critical of our own behavior and shortcomings.
That is not a bad thing. A little more humility will keep us on the straighter path. God bless you.

Spot on! The Apostle Paul went on in Romans, chapter 7 quite elegantly about his own struggle with his sin, then wrapped it up beautifully! Rm 7:24-25 where he writes (NIV) What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God-through Jesus Christ our Lord!
