Lesser Things

Good news: this week does appear, finally, to have an ending. I am looking forward to the weekend with anticipation. I came across this quote today and felt inclined to share. No one says it better than Pipes!
"Fight for us, O God, that we not drift numb and blind and foolish into vain and empty excitements. Life is too short, too precious, too painful to waste on worldly bubbles that burst. Heaven is too great, hell is too horrible, eternity is too long that we should putter around on the porch of eternity."
John Piper
Oh, the temptation to waste life on lesser things. I look forward to glorifying God now and in all eternity by enjoying Him for Himself and in the gifts He has given. Like salvation through Jesus alone, and the weekend!
