In Romans 8, Paul offers us an anchor for our souls. He wants us to know that we are held fast, secure in the midst of many kinds of evil and suffering in this life. We find hope to endure suffering as the Holy Spirit intercedes for us. We also find hope as God works to make everything, good and evil, work out for our good. More than this, we can be sure God will finish what he started in our lives because of his powerful determination to make us like his Son in order to glorify his Son. This is a great hope that connects God’s original foreknowledge with our future glory, and everything in between.
