He who created me

"You created everything, and it is for your pleasure that they exist and were created." - Revelation 4: 11

My sole purpose here on earth is to please God. No matter what I do, say, think, or act it should all be glorifying to Him who created me. It's easy to agree with that statement. It's easy to think that since I agree with it, I must be on the right track. It's easy to think that that's enough. Sinful nature allows humans to subconsciously think about the most minimal way of "serving" to suffice their own conscience. But what if I had to think about what sufficed God? I'd be put to shame. But if knowing that, and I continue to do what I believe is "good enough" for my time here on earth, doesn't that make me arrogant? I'm defining who I am FOR God. I'm telling GOD the creator of me, not to mention of the universe and all its laws holding it, to hold on a second because that's all the energy and talents I have to offer at the moment. Would you ever say to God, "Woah, bro, hold on. I need my personal space to decompress. You're smothering me?' No. never. Of course personal rest is needed from the outside worldly things. But do I ever need a "break" from God? Isn't He the one who edifies me and brings me rest? In all that I do, say, think, and act, God should be the whole center of it, and if I ever find that burdensome I need to check if what I am doing is glorifying to Him who created me, because HE is why I live.
