Romans 8:18-25

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.

We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

Xiayi's song for me : - Free - by Corrinne May

I see the morning glory

It winds upon the tree

It tells the untold story of how things were meant to be

You saw the universe

Caught up in desperate dreams

You came and changed the ending

Changed it to save my fate

You led the revolution

You left your legacy

Embraced the struggle

in the face of mortality

I know I'm not alone in this

Help me believe

I can be free

I can be free from this place

Beautiful healer

Beautiful grace

Help me to see

Everything fall into place

Wake me from dreaming

No more deceiving

Break these chains

It's still the same old story

This great divide

Between the want and waste

And all the hunger inside

I heard the news today

Now I'm trying to find my place

I'm just a single voice

What can I do to erase

All this misunderstanding

All this anarchy

Six degrees of separation

Sometimes it's so hard to see

That we are not alone in this

I need to believe
