Romans 8:18-25
Brothers and sisters: I consider that the sufferings of this present time are as nothing compared with the glory to be revealed for us. For creation awaits with eager expectation the revelation of the children of God; for creation was made subject to futility, not of its own accord but because of the one who subjected it, in hope that creation itself would be set free from slavery to corruption and share in the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that all creation is groaning in labor pains even until now; and not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, we also groan within ourselves as we wait for adoption, the redemption of our bodies. For in hope we were saved. Now hope that sees for itself is not hope. For who hopes for what one sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait with endurance.
Dawg's thought:
Today's prayer intention is for the repose of the souls of those who have lost their lives in the Middle East conflicts.
Yes, I know it's late, but better late then never. I'm having a hard time writing a reflection for today's reading. If you would like to offer a reflection, I would love to hear it. Take care and God Bless.
