Soli Deo Gloria

Mark Batterson post:  SDG

Johann Sebastian Bach was to classical music what Shakespeare was to Literature or Newton was to Physics.

256 Cantatas.  Enough said.

When Bach completed his cantatas, he was careful to glorify God by inscribing the initials SDG.  It stood for the Latin phrase: Soli Deo GloriaTo the Glory of God Alone.  Love that so much. What a way to live!  The only way to live!

In the words of the first tenet of the Shorter Westminster Catechism: The chief end of man is glory God and enjoy Him forever.
