The desire to express Himself through man is found more clearly in the next verse, Romans 8:30. Man's glorification, is the expression of God through man.
But my main reason to present the gospel tract is to show that repentance is clearly taught there. Lee also wrote a number of books on repentance.

Romans 8:30 New International Version (NIV)
30 And those he predestined, he also called; those he called, he also justified; those he justified, he also glorified.
ok. here is the next verse and no indication of God wanting to express himself thru man. What else do you have?
