Inge: heaven

Tuesday, December 6, 2022

    Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.
    —Deuteronomy 4:39 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Heaven is not a far-away place to which we hope to go; it is the presence of God in which we ought to live.
