Romans 8:25

A Two-Stage Healing

²⁴ For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope; for what a man seeth, how doth he yet hope for? ²⁵ But if we hope for what we see not, we patiently wait for it. ²⁶ Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us, with groanings which cannot be uttered.
