Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Even when I call out or cry for help, he shuts out my prayer. He has barred my way with blocks of stone; he has made my paths crooked. Like a bear lying in wait, like a lion in hiding, he dragged me from the path and mangled me and left me without help.”
(Lamentations 3:8-11)

Something tells me Jeremiah wasn’t wearing one of those, “God is good all the time” shirts, Jesus.

Are You good all the time?

Yes.

But some days it doesn’t feel like it.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Cain said to the Lord, ‘My punishment is more than I can bear. Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.’ But the Lord said to him, ‘Not so; anyone who kills Cain will suffer vengeance seven times over.’”
(Genesis 4:13-15)

You are stunningly good to the worst of us, Jesus!

…which explains why You are so good to me.

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned realization:

“Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.”
(James 3:10-12)

I think You just nailed me, Jesus.

Do I praise You?

Yes. Absolutely.

Do I sometimes speak judgmental words of anger and disrespect?

Sadly, I do.

Looks like I’m due for some

spring cleaning.
