Christ knows we are made for enjoyment. We are made by Him and for Him, and nothing except Him will ever do. Until we have Him, we will be wild with desire for the taste of Him. In fact, Blaise Pascal argued this search for divine happiness is what fuels every decision we make. “This is the motive of every action of every man, even of those who hang themselves.” Whether it’s doing what we know we should, or doing what we know we will soon regret, we make decisions every day based on what we think will make us happiest. ItΓÇÖs no wonder we’re commanded to delight in God.
