Enjoy Him forever
The Westminster Confession of Faith has great appeal to me because of its simple format, yet profound responses. The answer to the question, "What is the chief end of man?" is simply, "To glorify God and enjoy Him forever." It has taken me many years to learn how to enjoy God. My prayer is that you will learn much sooner the joy of knowing Him and loving Him. He is no tyrant, He is no taskmaster. He does not desire that we live in a straitjacket, fearful of disobeying Him, lest we be punished for our foolishness. I love Psalm 119:32: "I run in th path of your commands, for you have set my heart free." His commands are not burdensome, but simply allow us freedom to live life as it was designed to be lived.
