Pray this Lazaroo with caution:

“…he clung to the sins of Jeroboam…he did not turn away from them.”
(2 Kings 3:3)

There are a lot of bad examples out there, Jesus

some of which appear to work.

From a distance.
Short term.

However, I have Your word on it:

Sooner or later they will fail.
Every last one of them.

So why would I want to follow anyone’s bad example over the cliff?

Might be a good idea to turn away.
While I can.

Pray this Lazaroo with undiluted sincerity:

“He got rid of the sacred stone of Baal that his father had made.”
(2 Kings 3:2)

That’s the first thing some kids do, Jesus –

change what their parents did.

Growing up, they saw their parents’ flaws – real or imagined –

swore to themselves they would do it better when they got the chance.

In this case, Joram was 100% correct.

Baal had to go.

But sometimes as kids…

the older we get
the smarter our parents begin to look.
