"The hand of our God is favorably disposed to all those who seek Him, but His power and His anger are against all who forsake Him."
Four times throughout the last few chapters of this book, the author, Ezra makes reference to the hand of the Lord. For the better part, it's always in regards to His grace, His direction, His provision, and now it's a comparison of those who seek Him, and those who forsake Him. Not a pretty picture of the God we seek and worship, yet truthful in the estimation of the writer, for those who reject Him. Continue to pray for those around us who reject the mercies o God, His favor and lovingkindness.
