Satisified with all that God is for us in Jesus?
“I join the apostle Paul in praying that the eyes of our hearts would be enlightened so that we might know the surpassing greatness of his power in us who believe (Ephesians 1:18-19). That power has awakened in us, not just a desire for God to give us a happy future, but for God himself to be the essense of our happy future. It has produced in us, not just a delight in the promises of God, but in the God of the promises. Faith embraces God in all his promises.”
John Piper, Future Grace, p. 207
Philippa just said to me something to the effect of “Enjoying God is qualitier.” Granted, taking her comment out of context actually destroys its meaning, but I like the sentiment. Enjoying God is the highest of all pleasures.
