"But who are you, a mere human being, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it 'Why did you make me like this?'" Romans 9:20
This section of Romans talks a lot about how God predestines those who are going to love Him, and those who are going to hate Him. "Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden." (18). This doesn't really seem fair. I thought we were supposed to have free choice to decide to follow God? But God says that He knows what's going on, He's got it all worked out, He's the one that made us. So maybe it is like we still have the choice, but God, since He's all-knowing, knows what we will eventually choose, but did He create us that way? Hmmm... maybe tomorrow's reading will have more insight.
Lord, I don't understand it all, but I know You do. Thank You for having it all figured out.
