Focus: The life we have been freed to live is not all rainbows and unicorns. We suffer the effects of sin, including frailty, sickness, and pain. We suffer with Christ in a sinful world that hates the light. In fact, at times we can gauge how much we have acquiesced to worldly ways by how comfortable we feel here and now. Though rainbows remind us of God’s promise, even they come in the midst of rain. But it is here, in suffering, that we are also reminded of how things should be, and we know that when Jesus comes again, they will. There will be no more suffering. Main Text: Romans 8:18-25 |
