19 Although the Lord sent prophets to the people to bring them back to him, and though they testified against them, they would not listen.
This is similar to a question I asked a week ago, or so. Why doesn't God send prophets now? We could use anything that might bring the people back to God. It feels like we get further and further away everyday.
This chapter started in such a positive way.....but, it ended much darker. We, as people, cannot seem to keep our eyes on God. Its a great reminder for me, to read these stories everyday. I need to keep my focus on God and his mission.....not mine.

It is amazing how 1 person can go through such extremes in behavior. We must surround ourselves with positive influences and people who can hold us accountable or else the risk of going off the path God has for us seems high.
