Praise to the Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) and thank you pastor John 😊❤ for sharing " Why God makes so much of us?" . God is God and I am not God. But we follow Jesus by trusting God😊100%❤ by faith in Jesus😊1st❤. Luke 1:37 "37 For nothing will be impossible with God( God😊100%❤ our Father in heaven)."( Luke 1:37 ESV Study Bible.) Can this ( Luke 1:37❤ ) be one of the answers to the questioned based on the question only? Luke 1:37❤ in Christ.

Genesis 45:25-28 "25 So they went up out of Egypt and came to the land of Canaan to their father Jacob😊❤. 26 And they told him, " Joseph❤ is still alive, and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt." And his heart became numb, for he did not believe them. 27 But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them, and when he sae the wagons that Joseph😊❤ had sent to carry him, the spirit of their father Jacob😊❤ revived❤. 28 And Israel😊❤ said, " It is enough; Joseph❤ my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die."( Genesis 45:25-28 ESV Study Bible speaking of " die" reminds me on John 11:25-26 😊❤ from the Bible in Christ) Jesus 😊1st❤ said. John 11:25 "25 Jesus (😊1st❤ our savior in Christ) said to her( Martha😊❤), " I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever(" whoever " means anyone 😊❤) believes ( trusts😊❤) in me, though he die, yet shall he live, 26 and everyone😊❤ who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe( trust) this?" "( John 11:25-26 ESV Study Bible) Do you also believe( trust ) what my Lord and my savior, Jesus😊1st❤ said in John 11:25-26😊❤ today too?

2 Timothy 2:1-13(A good soldier of Christ Jesus😊1st❤) 2 Timothy 2:4 " 4 No ( spirtual )soldier get entangles with civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one (Jesus😊1st❤) who enlisted him."( 2 Timothy ESV Study Bible) I like the Zondervan NIV Study Bible version for this verse more in Christ. 2 Timothy 2:4 "4 No one serving as a soldier get involves in civilian affairs- he wants ❤ to please his commanding officier( Jesus😊1st❤ our savior in Christ)."( 2 Timothy 2:4 Zondervan NIV Study Bible) From Zondervan NIV Study Bible it said 2 Timothy 1:1-4( Introduction) 2 Timothy 1:1-2( Introduction❤& greeting❤) 2 Timothy 1:3-2:13( Encouragement😊❤ to be faithful😊❤) in Christ. 2 Timothy 2:14-26( A workman❤ approved❤ by God( God 😊100%❤ our Father in heaven) in Christ😊❤. Mark 2:23-28(Jesus😊1st❤is the Lord of Sabbath) "23 One Sabbath he( Jesus😊1st❤) was going through the grainfields, and as they made their way, his disciples began to pluck heads of grain. 24 And the Pharisees were saying to him, " Look, why are they doing what us not lawful on the Sabbath? " 25 And he( Jesus😊1st❤) said to them, " Have you never read what David😊❤ did. When was in need and was hungry, he and those who were with him: 26 how he entered the house❤😊 of God(😊100%❤), in time of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those who were with him? " 27 And he(Jesus😊1st❤) said to them, " The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath."( ESV Study Bible) Pause in Mark 2:28a "28( a) So the Son of Man( Jesus😊1st❤ = " Son of Man" = 100% Man and 100% God too in Christ from Isaiah 9:6😊❤& John 1:1-2😊❤ and John 10:30 or Son of God( from John 3:16😊❤ too) or Lord and savior ( Luke 2:11😊❤ ) for our Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) and our savior( Jesus😊1st❤) or Jesus😊1st ❤ has many names in the Bible😊❤ too just like God( God 😊100%❤ our Father in heaven) has many name attributes from Genesis 1:1- Revelation 22:21 depend on which book( 66 books) of the Bible we are referring to God or Jesus in Christ alike John 11:30 ( Jesus said.) "30 I and the Father( God 😊100%❤our Father in heaven) are one." "( John 10:30 ESV Study Bible) Now back Mark 2:28 "28 So the Son of Man ( Jesus😊1st❤) is lord even of the Sabbath(Exodus 34:21)." "( Mark 2:28 ESV Study Bible and above all in all in Christ meant to share Mark 2:23-28 ESV Study Bible) In Mark 2:23-24, my ESV Study Bible said, ( i quote in quotes now in Christ), " Deuteronomy 23:25 implies(indirectly say) that, in the case of hunger, it was permissible to eat " ... heads of the grain"( from Mark 2:23b ESV Study Bible) from any field one might pass by. "( ESV Study Bible) Speaking of the word "Sabbath" means "...work, however, was not pemitted on the Sabbath( from Exodus 34:21). Pharisaic interpretation sought to guard against work on the Sabbath by prohibiting( just in other not yet know English 😊❤ yet " prohibiting could mean foribben or now allow to me in Christ) even the minimal "work" involved in thus satisfying one hunger."( ESV Study Bible) Anyway Jesus said In Mark 2:27-28 "27 And he(Jesus😊1st❤) said to them, " The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. 28 So the Son of Man ( Jesus😊1st❤) is lord even of the Sabbath" "( Mark 2:27-28 ESV Study Bible) Amen to Mark 2:27-28 in Christ. Anyways, Today is Saturday. So, Thank God for it is good for both sides in Christ for good in Christ❤. Do you also believe( trust) too that Jesus (😊1st❤) my Lord( Jesus😊1st❤) and my savior( Luke 2:11 Jesus😊1st❤) in Christ from Luke 2:11😊❤ is also the lord even of the Sabbath( from Mark 2:28b) in Jesus'name, i pray( Mark 2:28 "28 So the Son of Man ( Jesus😊1st❤) is lord even of the Sabbath" "( Mark 2:27-28 ESV Study Bible) and John 14:6😊❤) ) Amen.

And he said, " Here I am." 3 Then he said, " I am God, the God(😊100%❤) of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will❤ make you into a great nation😊❤. 4 I myself will❤ go down with you😊❤ to Egypt, and I will also bring you😊❤ up😊❤ again😊❤, and Joseph😊❤'s hand❤ shall close your eyes."

John Piper, have you ever thought that if evangelical prolife “leaders” like yourself had rallied around Trump in 2020 and given him credit for his achievements regarding abortion and such he wouldn’t be waffling now? In a way I don’t blame him. He did everything that was demanded of him by the prolife community, and what did he get? Pure, unadulterated hate. Thanks, Piper, for your sterling work in creating enemies and division. You must be so proud.
