Romans 8:26-28
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Intercede: to intervene between parties with a view to reconciling differences
What stands between the sand and a sand castle is the artist. Sand cannot just shape itself. It has no idea how to become a wonderful work of art. The artist begins interceding between what the sand is and what it will become by packing and shaping it until the castle stands tall in the sun. The Holy Spirit is and artist in our lives. We have no idea what we need or how to become what God wants. So, the Holy Spirit steps in and begins to pack and sculpt us. He intercedes to help us stand tall and proud in the Son!
