God is the only goal worthy of man’s efforts; the fitting end of human existence is a loving union with God.
Augustine
As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.
Colossians 2:6-7
The New King James Version
A man there was, though some did count him mad,
The more he cast away the more he had.
John Bunyan
