Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“…Jesus Christ…will be with us…”
(2 John 1:3)

That’s what I have to know, Jesus –

that You’ll be with me.

I’m aware that’s backwards.

I’m the one who’s supposed to be following You.

And I am.
Imperfectly.

Which is why I need reassurance
when I mess up.

Because it’s when I’m outnumbered, overwhelmed, flat-out scared

that I have to be confident You’ll never leave me alone.

But that’s the secret, isn’t it?

You’re with me
when I’m with You.
