Aching Together, Hoping Together
“For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body.” —Romans 8:22–23 (NASB 1995)
Families often experience the world’s brokenness in different ways—but the Holy Spirit brings unity in the waiting. Even in the groans, there’s a shared hope: redemption is coming.
When you don’t have the words, the Spirit still understands. He groans with you. And He reminds us that our adoption is sealed, and our forever with Jesus is worth the wait.
Family Talk:
When do you feel the weight of this broken world?
How can we remind each other of our hope in Christ?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, thank You for being with us in our groaning. Help our family to hold onto hope and trust in the redemption You are bringing. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
