The Glory That Is To Be Revealed

26 In the same way the Spirit also helps us in our weakness; for we do not know what prayers to offer nor in what way to offer them. But the Spirit Himself pleads for us in yearnings that can find no words, 27 and the Searcher of hearts knows what the Spirit's meaning is, because His intercessions for God's people are in harmony with God's will. 28 Now we know that for those who love God all things are working together for good--for those, I mean, whom with deliberate purpose He has called.
