“It is the Spirit himself bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided that we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.” Romans 8:16-18

The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit…what a holy salve for our soul.

The magnificence of the Spirit of God and our spirit, together as one, bearing witness to our heirship of God, our joint-heirship with Christ, is a prayer whispered since before our conception.

Presently, we are suffering, yet God’s glory within us is greater still; our joy with Christ is greater still.

You are the sons and daughters of God, saved by Jesus at the cross.

There is nothing left to fear; rejoice evermore!

All is well. Alleluia!
