Life can be really painful. Things don’t go the way we expected they would. We get a diagnosis that leaves us stunned and shocked. Bills stack up. A friend betrays us. Life is hard. That’s just the way it is. But the beautiful hope of redemption is that this is not always going to be the way it is! In this passage in Romans Paul fills us with hope that one day our suffering will turn into glory. So, eyes up weary traveler, straighten your back, put one foot in front of the other; your redemption, and your redeemer draws near!
