Quote of the Day

The chief end of man is to glorify God.  And it is truer in suffering than anywhere else that God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.  My prayer, therefore, is that the Holy Spirit would pour out on His people around the world a passion for the supremacy of God in all things.  And I pray that He would make it plain that the pursuit of joy in God, whatever the pain, is a powerful testimony to God's supreme and all-satisfying worth.  And so may it come to pass as we "fill up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions" that all the peoples of the world will see the love of Christ and magnify His grace in the gladness of faith.
 -John Piper, Desiring God
