“God created a world of beauty in space and time; but he also made us to know him and to live in his presence; he thus sets eternity and a desire for it in our hearts. Consequently, we can never be finally satisfied with anything the world can offer us. Made as God’s image, created for him, we must remain forever dissatisified until we live in fellowship with him and for his glory.”
– Sinclair Ferguson in The Pundit’s Folly
Is it just me, or is this a restatement of the beginning of Augustine’s Confessions?

‘Vast are you, Loard, and as vast should be your praise’ – ‘vast what you do; what you know beyond assaying.’ Yet man, a mere segment of what you made, strives to appraise you – man, ‘confined by a nature that must die,’ confined by this evidence of his sin, the evidence that you rebuff the overweening, yet man would still appraise you, this mere segment of what you made. You prompt us yourself to find satisfaction in appraising you, since you made us tilted toward you, and our heart is unstable until stabilized in you.
