In my reading and reflecting from the Old Testament Proverbs, the contrast in this verse stopped me in my tracks:
The Lord will not allow a righteous person to starve, but He intentionally ignores the desires of a wicked person.
-- Proverbs 10:3 (God's Word Translation)
If my thoughts had been sinful, He would have refused to hear me.
-- Psalm 66:18 (CEV)
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they will be filled.
-- Words of Jesus in Matthew 5:6 (NIV)
