Romans 8:18-30 - The Glory That Is To Be Revealed
18 For I consider all that we suffer in this present life is nothing to be compared with the glory which by-and-by is to be uncovered for us. 19 For all nature is expectantly waiting for the unveiling of the sons of God. 20 For nature did not of its own accord give up to failure; it was for the sake of Him who let it thus be given up, in the hope 21 that even nature itself might finally be set free from its bondage to decay, so as to share the glorious freedom of God's children. 22 Yes, we know that all nature has gone on groaning in agony together till the present moment. 23 Not only that but this too, we ourselves who enjoy the Spirit as a foretaste of the future, even we ourselves, keep up our inner groanings while we wait to enter upon our adoption as God's sons at the redemption of our bodies. 24 For we were saved in such a hope. 25 But a hope that is seen is not real hope, for who hopes for what he actually sees? But if we hope for something we do not see, we keep on patiently waiting for it.
26 In the same way the Spirit, too, is helping us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself pleads for us with unspeakable yearnings, 27 and He who searches our hearts knows what the Spirit thinks, for He pleads for His people in accordance with God's will.
28 Yes, we know that all things go on working together for the good of those who keep on loving God, who are called in accordance with God's purpose. 29 For those on whom He set His heart beforehand He marked off as His own to be made like His Son, that He might be the eldest of many brothers; 30 and those whom He marked off as His own He also calls; and those whom He calls He brings into right standing with Himself; those whom He brings into right standing with Himself He also glorifies.
