Romans 8:19 New International Version (NIV)
19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the
children of God to be revealed.
Eagerly waits! Don't you just love that idea! Sounds like an
oxymoron. It's not. Think of a groom waiting for his bride to come down the
aisle. Imagine parents of a child that is due to be born. Remember what it was
like as a child waiting for Christmas morning. Eagerly waits! That's what
creation, so caught up with decay, disaster, and death, is doing! And what is
creation waiting for so eagerly? Our transformation and revelation as God's triumphant
and glorious children. Sounds pretty wonderful for a time and world like ours.
Thoughts for today:
When is the last time the sunrise heard your prayers?
