Today I am very thankful for the many blessings God has chosen to bestow upon me.

A life devoted to pleasure
John D. Rockefeller
"I can think of nothing less pleasurable than a life devoted to pleasure."
This seems so simple and profound at the same time. And yet, of course, humorous.
But after you think for a little bit, you realize that our God wants us to be happy and full of joy. He is our ultimate source of joy. To have joy would be pleasurable. Therefore it can be determined that a life devoted to pleasure would be a life devoted to God because only God can provide pure pleasure and ultimate peace and happiness.
Yes, John D. Rockefeller, I too can think of nothing less pleasurable than a life devoted to serving and glorifying my God!
