Passion for Praise: 'Everything Comes from Him!'

Thursday, January 5, 2006

For who can know the Lord's thoughts? Who knows enough to give him advice? And who has given him so much that he needs to pay it back? For everything comes from him and exists by his power and is intended for his glory. All glory to him forever! Amen.
— Romans 11:34-36
