TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:

ROMANS 8:19-23 - For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope 21 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. 22 For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. 23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

0:00.0	Hey, my friends, welcome back to the morning mindset. I hope you're ready to get your mind
0:09.8	aligned with the truth of God's word. Your Christian author, C.S. Lewis, once wrote,
0:15.7	If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy.
0:23.1	The only logical explanation is that I was made for another world.
0:30.3	Do you relate with that quote?
0:32.0	Do you understand that the longings you feel inside for this life to be over and the glories of heaven to be realized
0:41.2	is a longing that indicates God has designed you for that thing you're longing for.
0:47.9	He's designed you to have eternity in his presence, in a glorious state, far beyond anything that this world has to offer.
0:58.5	Well, today, we are going to be digging into Romans 8, 19 through 23. So get out your Bibles.
1:04.8	We're going to be digging into that in a moment. But before I get ahead of myself, I want to
1:08.5	acknowledge the daily sponsor for today's episode.
1:11.9	Gary Lang is supporting today's episode, and Gary just has gratitude for the messages of the
1:17.5	morning mindset, and he prays for its success in continuing mission to teach and encourage Christians
1:23.2	and reach non-believers with the truth of God's word. Well, Gary, thank you for being a daily
1:27.8	sponsor for supporting what we do in a tangible way. Friends, if you would like to support
1:33.1	with a daily sponsorship like Gary did, you can find out how to do that by going to morning
1:38.6	mindsetmedia.com slash daily sponsor. You'll find that link in the description for today's episode as well.
1:45.9	Thanks again, Gary. Okay, let's pray together before we dig into Romans 8 because this is a
1:51.9	glorious truth and it's honestly quite a long passage. So we need some help to understand it.
1:58.0	Lord God, give us your insight today. We don't want to misunderstand what you're
2:02.9	saying because we can apply it wrongly in that case. So give us clarity. Help us understand so that we
2:09.1	can apply to our lives the way you intend. In Jesus' name, amen. All right, friends, get out your
