Romans 9 - Election - How much clearer could it be?

I am trying to get back on track with my Bible reading plan and by the grace of God am in Romans - particularly Romans 9.

I was once again struck by the clear teaching of God's election - that He glorifies Himself through His expression of mercy for the elect and His exercise of justice for the "vessels of wrath".

It is with great fear and trembling that I consider, but for the grace of God, I would justly be a "vessel of wrath"!

Praise be to Him whose mercy endures forever!

Praise be to Christ, who gave Himself so that many may escape the Father's just wrath! Hallelujah!
