Romans 9

Has anyone else ever struggled with this besides me? I mean, God picking and choosing. Hardening Pharaoh's heart, creating him, and using him as the bad guy in His big story? Loving Jacob and hating Esau?

But then there's that whole potter and clay thing. Of course that makes absolute perfect sense when you say it like that. It's not a roll of the dice, it's calculated. It's not chance, it's a massive galactic orchestrated demonstration of His glory.

I just want to play a role in it. I'll be a pawn. I just want to give my whole life to it. Everything He gave me I give him right back. I want to live every moment poured out.
