9:17
In Romans 8 Paul speaks of all creation waiting for the revealing of the sons of God. Creation will thrive when we live as we are meant to live, as the sons of God. Then creation will find its true beauty. Think how beautiful much of creation is already. This is in a fallen world, when God has brought the new heaven and the new earth the beauty will be out of this world. Now we should not think of this happening as God waving a magic wand. Back in Genesis 1 God gave man the task of subduing creation, looking after it. Central to God’s plan is creating a people who truly live as His people, and with Him as our God.
Some may consider it a little unfair that the men get the grain, but the women get the wine!
