Romans 7

Well, this week the chapters were loaded. Some of the things mentioned on Wednesday were:

God's law was made to protect us and be like a warning sign for sin. However, as a result of the law, we have been under the power of sin. Paul writes about Jesus and how He died for our sins once and for all.
V 18-24
Paul talk about how we and all of creation groan to be right with God. We were made for God's glory, but we have sort of made a mess of things. We are eagerly awaiting the adoption and redemption of our bodies. (v23)
Paul also wrote that the good he wanted to do, he could not do and the things he didn't want to do, he did. This struggle is so easy to relate to and for once Paul seemed to humble himself. I liked that part.
v 28
"And we know that all things work together for the good to those who are called according to His purpose". Sometimes it is hard to accept this fact or see how it is true. But often, when we look back, we see things much differently than we do in the present.
