We were not created for our own liberty, happiness, or fulfillment.
We were not created to find our own way and to discover our own joy.
We were not designed to define what our needs are and to give our lives to meet them.
We were not made to treat the world like and endless buffet of delights for our consumption.
We were made for God, made to live for His glory, and made to find the fullest expression of our humanity in loving, worshipful community with Him.
(Quote from Paul David Tripp in his book "Forever".)
