Ezra’s commitment to the Lord and his role as a servant of God wasn’t only driven by a sense of duty. He must have loved the Lord and consequently the people he was serving. His return to Jerusalem, his opposition to intermarriage in chapter 9, his passionate prayer in chapter 10 that led to the people’s confession, etc all show a lot of love and compassion. May the Lord help us to be filled with His love and the requisite passion and commitment for what He has called us to do.
