      Paul leads us to compare with the present sufferings with the glory that will be revealed in us. And the whole creation is waiting for this revelation. 

Bishop N.T. Wright's says (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N._T._Wright):
     The human race was put in charge of creation. When humans rebelled and worshipped parts of creation instead of God himself (Romans 1:21-23), creation fell into disrepair. God allowed this state of slavery to continue, not because the creation wanted to be like that but because he was determined eventually to put the world back to rights according to the original plan.  the plan had called for human beings to take their place under God and over the world, worshipping the creator and exercising glorious stewardship over the world. 

N.T. Wright. Paul for Everyone:Romans: Part 1. Louisville,KY: Westminster John Knox Press, 2004, p.151-152.

     So, how willing you are to take your place under God and over the world, worshipping the creator and exercising glorious stewardship over the world? 

Let's have a time to be still and give the Holy Spirit space to speak through the passage of scripture we have just read. Offer this time up to Jesus as you listen to him, while listening to "Gabriel's Oboe"

     What I heard from Jesus today is: Bless the Lord O my soul

    What I got from Jesus today is wonderful. Suddenly I understand why Jesus gives me a chance to worship Him since three weeks ago, the Monday I was in San Antonio, Texas. 

    Since then I have a new way to worship the Lord when I finished each blog and I just sit there, playing the song and worshiping Him. The wonderful thing is that I feel the presence of the Holy Spirit so strong almost each time to help me to be in such a prayerful mode worshiping Him like never before. And, because of that I am more aware of how can I be a better steward to glorify His Holy Name. 

     All this glorious moment each day when we can use all we have to worship Him is to wait with the whole creation for that final glory that we are all waiting for.

     Let's use this song now to worship our Lord Jesus Christ knowing that at the same time the Holy Spirit is praying for us to lift up our worship to the Lord. 
    
Dear Holy Spirit,
Lead us to be able to worship with everything we have now. Help us to be a good steward that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
