Romans 8:16-19 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the [immature] children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature [the animals] waiteth for the manifestation[unveiling--the removal of the fleshly nature] of the [mature] sons of God.
We are immature children of God, but we will be mature sons of God. Note that the glory will be revealed in us. That is God's plan for us.
