My greatest fear is that I have not completely eradicated my evil inclination.
This does not say that I'm not sure whether or not I have completely eradicated my evil inclination. I am saying that I know I have not, and I fear the evil that the Lord, in his compassion, has hidden from my sight. He has prevented me from seeing it because I am too weak to conquer it right now. And that is why I am fearful.
But I place my trust in the Lord, that he is guiding me in His ways,
and teaching me to become stronger, so that I will be able to conquer
every last trace of my evil inclination. Because I place my trust in
the Lord completely, I am guaranteed of victory.
