In the middle of this wildly victorious chapter, Paul says, "Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory." Part of the Christian life is suffering trials and hardships of various types. The promise that all will be well is what we are waiting for isn't going to happen until our bodies are redeemed. In the meantime, when suffering and trials take place, remember that they do not separate us from God's love. We have hope that is beyond this world.
