God wants a people addicted to his pleasure- a people who will served him for no other reason than the delight they take in him. This is the very heart of true worship. It is not self centered. It is putting God at the very center of self, so that self cannot possibly be satisfied without him.
-John Crowder

We were made to enjoy him. The Christian life is not an annihilation of ego but a baptism into him. We aren’t removing ourselves from the equation. He has already removed our old sinful selves from us (Romans 6-8). We are dead to sin and alive to God (Romans 6:10). We get the jump in the glory pool of God’s person and nature. Everything that He is, we get to experience. Don’t try to kill your flesh Christian. The savior already did that. You were crucified with him in a mystical way(Galatians 3-5).

Your desire to enjoy and experience the presence of God constantly isn’t selfish. It’s the most humble request you could ever make: to know him. You can only know him by experience. Ask your good Father to give you the Holy Spirit (Matthew 7). He gives to those who ask!

You have not because you ask not… (James 4)

Matthew 7:7-12 AMP

[7] "Ask and keep on asking and it will be given to you; seek and keep on seeking and you will find; knock and keep on knocking and the door will be opened to you. [8] For everyone who keeps on asking receives, and he who keeps on seeking finds, and to him who keeps on knocking, it will be opened. [9] Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will [instead] give him a stone? [10] Or if he asks for a fish, will [instead] give him a snake? [11] If you then, evil (sinful by nature) as you are, know how to give good and advantageous gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven [perfect as He is] give what is good and advantageous to those who keep on asking Him. [12] "So then, in everything treat others the same way you want them to treat you, for this is [the essence of] the Law and the [writings of the] Prophets.
