“Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses, weaknesses

and distresses) and carried our sorrows and pains, yet we

considered Him stricken, smitten and afflicted by God.

the first fruits of the Spirit

even we ourselves groan

within ourselves

eagerly

waiting for the adoption

the redemption of our body.
