Groaning with Grief
”For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travileth in pain together until now.”-Romans 8:22
We are constantly bombarded with bad news, from the media and contact with others. We live in perilous times. Some folks would have us to believe that the planet is on the verge of total destruction. That kind of talk gets depressing. So, what are the facts?
The Bible tells us “the whole creation groaneth and travileth in pain”. This suffering includes all of creation. Even God’s children are not exempt. We all suffer. Life is tough for everyone. Right now some of you feel you are drowning in a sea of sorrow. You suffer to such an extent that you wonder if you can make it through another day.
So, what is the cause of all this? In a word it is “sin”. We live in a fallen world that has been affected by sin, consquently all of creation suffers and we groan. Oh how we groan!
For every need God has an answer.
