20. It’s About Jesus!
“We were created to live for something,
someone bigger than ourselves. We were
designed to live with, for, and through the
Lord. God is meant to be the motivation
and hope of everything we do. His
pleasure, his honor, and his will are the
things for which we are meant to live. But
the foolishness of sin really does cause
us to reduce our lives to the size and
shape of our lives.”
Paul Tripp
