“Q. What is the chief end of man?
A. Man’s chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy him for ever.”
-Westminster Shorter Catechism
This phrase has been haunting me lately. To what degree does my life live up to this phrase. How much of my daily can be looked at through this lens and be effected by it. I believe that this is true and that it is a masterful summation of the gospel of Jesus. It is my prayer that I learn to live up to it.

I actually agree wholeheartedly with that quote. As stated in 1 Cor 10:31 – “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”
Trick is, figuring out what the cheese it is that glorifies God. I suppose according to that, it’d be every aspect of our lives…not easy.
