I came across this quote while reading this afternoon. A stunning, joy producing picture drawn by John Piper. To see God like this is why we where created. To delight in the the glory of God is the highest delight possible. All other delights compared to the glory of God are like a burning match compared to the blazing glory of 10 billion stars.

From all eternity the ever-existing, never-becoming, always-perfect God has know himself and loved what he knows. He has eternally seen his beauty and savored what he sees. His understanding of his own reality is flawless, and his exuberance in enjoying it is infinite. He has no needs, for he has no imperfections. He has no inclinations to evil because he has no deficiencies that could tempt him to do wrong. He is therefore the holiest and happiest being that is or that can be conceived. We cannot conceive of a happiness greater than the happiness of infinite power delighting infinitely in infinite beauty in the personal fellowship of the Trinity.  - John Piper from the book “Preaching the Cross”
