C.S. Lewis Quote

C.S. Lewis Quote

Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased. (The Weight of Glory 1949)

Are you far too easily pleased? What cheap and small pleasures in your life keep you from the true pleasure of knowing Christ and being known by Him? Be like Jacob grab a hold of God and don't let go until he blesses you!

Striving for infinite joy, Pastor Phillip
