What we need is a big picture of a great God who is utterly committed to joyfully demonstrating his greatness in doing us good. That is, we need to see the majesty of God and know the splendor of God overflowing toward us with exuberant omnipotence.

We must experience this magnificence as the explosion of God’s uncontainable zeal to satisfy his creatures by showing them himself.Quotes Worth Pondering – John Piper
