Chris.
It was a long four
month journey that Ezra led his team through. Surely this was not an easy
journey through the desert land but it was a journey of Faith and Expectancy. As
Ezra led his team well there was no discouragement through this long journey
because the team also had the vision from God. When we have Faith, Expectancy
and Vision we can complete the Journey that God has for us to go on.
