Rom.8.24

That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us.

Rom.8.24

For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has?

Rom.8.24

For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?

Rom.8.24

Now that we are saved, we eagerly look forward to this freedom. For if you already have something, you don't need to hope for it.
