We have been created and called to glorify and enjoy God by looking to Jesus for LIFE and righteousness so that we fight to trust and love in every situation and every relationship.

So Refresh Ourselves with His Goodness
It therefore becomes us also diligently to prosecute that investigation of God which so enraptures the soul with admiration as, at the same time, to make an efficacious impression on it. And, as Augustine expresses it, since we are unable to comprehend Him, and are, as it were, overpowered by his greatness, our proper course is to contemplate his works, and so refresh ourselves with His goodness. (John Calvin, Institutes, Book 1, Chapter V)
