Pray this Lazaroo in costly faith:

“…for the sake of his body…”
(Colossians 1:24)

Coming only days after Good Friday, Jesus…

it would be easy to think Paul is referring to your physical body,
beaten and crucified to pay for my sins.

But no.

Paul is talking about Your body of believers
and what he willingly suffers in their behalf.

Do I have that kind of love and compassion for Your Church?

Do I consider the sacrifices I make for them

a hardship…or a privilege?

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“But when they arrived, he began to draw back…”
(Galatians 2:12)

Peer pressure can be a good thing, Jesus

when the people around me are wholly devoted to You

when their only desire for me
is to see me follow You.

But so many times, groups and individuals have their own ideas

causing them to pressure me to fall in line with their agendas.

I’d love to please them, Father!

But I’d ten thousand times rather please You.

Keep your perspective as you pray this Lazaroo:

“He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, but not as his father and mother had done.”
(2 Kings 3:2)

Sounds like Joram deserves credit, Jesus

until I realize mom and dad
were Ahab and Jezebel.

He could’ve done a lot better than those two

and still deserved to be shot, hanged, beheaded, drawn and quartered.

Like me.

He had no excuse for his sins – even if they paled in comparison to those of others.

Nor do I.
