Something Is Happening

Romans 8:18-23 ESV 

For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

Something is happening. Creation awaits the new creation. The new creation is underway as the children of light take shape in the womb of the old creation. We are conceived by the Holy Spirit and will be revealed at the coming of Jesus who is the beginning and end of all creation.
