Day 261 - Ezra 1-2 & Psalm 75

Cyrus, the king of Persia, is tasked by God to build a house of God in Jerusalem. The second chapter chronicles all of the people that come to the house of God.

It is not our place to judge. That we need to leave with God.

I am playing catch-up today.  I find it interesting God uses Cyrus the king of Persia for this task.  It shouldn't be surprising though as God all people for his ways.  I guess this just goes to show how our thinking has been guided in this way by cultural biases maybe.  That we think God only uses those that believe in him, when this is a prime example of God using someone who is not a faithful believer.  

I agree.  God will judge us all, even the non believers.
