Our Good Is God’s Delight

“Works” longs for the joy of being glorified as strong. “Faith” longs for the joy of seeing God glorified as strong. 

When he was in anguish, Jesus rested his soul in the sovereign wisdom of God. 

Faith in God’s forgiveness means savoring the truth that a forgiving God is the most precious reality in the universe. 

From eternity, God has been self-sufficiently happy in himself. And because he has no needs of his own, he is gloriously free to meet ours. 

Our hearts have a natural drive to seek glory. But unless we find that desire in God, we will never experience the satisfaction we so crave. 

Friends, God is not satisfied to be in the background of your life. The Lord your God is the Lord alone, so love him with everything you've got—your whole heart, your whole soul, and all your strength.
