Maybe he heard my previous prayer for patience and he sent you to test my limits.

Do you glorify God? I believe you do, even while mired down in your failed test.

Yes, God brought up Pharaoh to destroy him in order to display his power. So, everyone has a purpose, and it is up the "potter" to create the pots for difference purposes. Some for noble purposes and some for common use.

I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion

I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth

Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for noble purposes and some for common use?

What if God, choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of his wrath—prepared for destruction? What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory
