"It has become clearer that God being glorified and God being enjoyed are not separate categories.
They relate to each other. Not as fruit and animals, but like fruit and apples. Apples are one kind of fruit. Enjoying God supremely is one way to glorify him. Enjoying God makes him look supremely valuable."
I love this quote I’m not sure who said it exactly. I think Mike Oliver did, but I’m not positive. This opened up a whole new relationship for me with God when I stopped looking at him as something I have to do daily. I have to meditate on him. I have to read. I have to not sin. It is good to do all these things and you should, but enjoying God brings him great joy. And it shows others how important God is to you. I think we should all view God like this quote does. I know I am going to try more to do this.
