Read Romans 8:18 in the NABRE onlineFor I reckon that the sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us.
Reflection
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. Paul is not minimizing the pain — he is maximizing the glory. The comparison is so one-sided that the suffering, though real, is outweighed.
