In this message from Romans 8:14–28, we are reminded that the Holy Spirit meets us right in the middle of a broken and suffering world, giving us confidence, identity, and hope. Paul calls us to “do the math” and see that our present suffering, while real and painful, cannot compare to the future glory that is coming. We are not alone in our struggle, all of creation is groaning for restoration, and yet we groan with hope, like childbirth that leads to new life. Through it all, the Spirit assures us that we are adopted children of God, invites us to cry out to Him as our Father, and even intercedes for us when we don’t have the words to pray. Because of this, we can trust that God is at work in every circumstance, using even our suffering to accomplish His good and perfect purposes in us.
