What does 1 Chronicles 28:2 mean?

David stood up and said, Listen to me, my brothers and my people. I wanted to build a house where God’s presence would rest, a place for the sacred chest of the Lord, our footstool. I made plans to build it. 1 Chronicles 28:2 - Modern Text Bible

(David again shares his longing to build a temple for God, showing his devotion and the significance of the project.)
