Passion for Praise: 'Both Heaven and Earth'

Wednesday, March 11, 1998

This is what the Lord says: "Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. Could you build me a temple as good as that? Could you build me such a resting place? My hands have made both heaven and earth; they and everything in them are mine. I, the Lord, have spoken! I will bless those who have humble and contrite hearts, who tremble at my word."
— Isaiah 66:1-2
