Edwards is helping me think about the gospel and our eating.
Next time you enjoy food.... remember:
God is glorified not only by His glory’s being seen, but by its being rejoiced
in. When those that see it delight in it, God is more glorified than if they
only see it. His glory is then received by the whole soul, both by the
understanding and by the heart. God made the world that He might
communicate, and the creature receive, His glory; and that it might [be]
received both by the mind and heart. He that testifies his idea of God’s
glory [doesn’t] glorify God so much as he that testifies also his approbation
of it and his delight in it. -- Jonathon Edwards
