Romans
8:19-23 New King James Version (NKJV)

19 For the earnest
expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. 20 For the creation was
subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;
21 because the
creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of
the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth
pangs together until now.23 Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the
Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption
of our body.
