Romans 10:1; Galatians 4:8-20
1. Why did Paul groan?
Paul was concerned for the Galatians. Formerly, when the Galatians did not know God, they were slaves to those who by nature are not gods. But now that they know God—or rather are known by God—how is it that they are turning back to those weak and miserable principles? Do they wish to be enslaved by them all over again?
Paul's heart desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved.
2 Peter 3:8-9
2. For what does God groan?
With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
God groans for our salvation.
