The fact that our oldest son is named Calvin may be a clue as to whom we consider worthy of emulation.

"The atonement...is His own property; and He certainly may, as He most assuredly will, do what He pleases with His own." ~Loraine Boettner The Reformed Doctrine of Predestination

"It is God's prerogative to determine who shall be vessels of mercy, and who shall be left to the just recompense of their sins." ~Charles Hodge

“Whatsoever the Lord pleased, that did He in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places. ” ~Psalm 135:6
“But our God is in the heavens: He hath done whatsoever He hath pleased.” ~Psalm 115:3

There is no attribute more comforting to His children than that of God’s Sovereignty. Under the most adverse circumstances, in the most severe trials, they believe that Sovereignty has ordained their afflictions, that Sovereignty overrules them, and that Sovereignty will sanctify them all. ~A.W. Pink

Sure, add me to your ping list, if you please.
