Pray this Lazaroo in grateful wisdom:

“…he withdrew…”
(Matthew 2:22)

There’s a time for that, isn’t there, Jesus?

in spite of the fact that I prefer to go forward.

It makes me feel like I’m accomplishing something
like I’m making progress.

But sometimes I venture into waters too deep

onto land whose “No Trespassing!” signs I’ve overlooked.

It’s not that You can’t enable me to do absolutely anything.

It’s that there’s a right time for everything

including a time – as Joseph discovered –

to withdraw.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“I heard you in the garden…”
(Genesis 3:10)

Adam had that 1on1 relationship with You, Jesus

and blew it.

He took it for granted, let Satan distract him, successfully tempt him

and lost it.

Now, for the first time in his life, he was hiding from You

didn’t want to talk.

So You pursued him!

Thank You for the countless times You’ve pursued me, LORD!
Sadly, I’ve experienced how scary, lonely and dangerous it is out there

without You.
