I

get that God takes mistakes and messes and makes them into miracles but that's not what happened here with me and Lucy.

To say that is to discredit the six or seven divine revelations that I had prior to meeting her and there's no telling how many she had prior to us meeting and I'm just not gonna go small. In fact I can't.

THIS:

"This unconditional election is essentially related to the rest of the TULIP doctrinal outline and hinges upon the supreme belief in the absolute sovereignty of God over the affairs of man. God unconditionally elects certain people even though they are sinful as an act of his saving grace apart from the shortcomings or will of man. Those chosen have done nothing to deserve this grace."

AND THAT:

Romans 8:29-30

For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

Romans 8:33

Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies.

VS: A mistake.

Lets pretend were presenting our cases to a Judge. Who's side you wanna be on? The evidence is overwhelmingly tilted to one side.

 "God unconditionally elects certain people even though they are sinful as an act of his saving grace apart from the shortcomings or will of man." Those chosen have done nothing to deserve this grace."

It's just 100% spot on. NOTHING about us was ever a mistake. Ever. Period, I know what it was, trust me I do and so does Lucy. And in the words of the Metallica song?

And nothing else natters.
