As David said, God knows what we are “really like.” I’m so thankful that God has loved me and saved me, even though He knows what I’m really like. Aren’t you?

God’s response to David’s desire to build a house for God. This prophecy has triple fulfillment: 1) Solomon built temple. 2) Jesus, Son of David, laid cornerstone for eternal temple. 3) Jesus will ultimately complete this house not made by hands. We are spiritual stones in this house.
