Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride; you have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace.”
(Song of Songs 4:9)

You have stolen my heart, Jesus!

with one Promise from Your Word

followed by a thousand more

with Your death on the cross for me

followed by Your resurrection
and the certainty that because You live
I will live forever with You also.

Correction:

You didn’t steal my heart.
It was Yours before time began.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“…as well as the posts of the surrounding courtyard with their bases, tent pegs and ropes.”
(Numbers 3:37)

Just when I think I’m done, Jesus

there’s always more.

There’s no stopping place on earth, is there?

I can walk off the job
but there’s no end to the work that needs to be done

until, as with You on the cross at the end of my life I can say:

“It is finished!”

And like You…

I will rise!

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead…”
(2 Timothy 2:8)

How could I forget, Jesus?

Because You live
so will I.

If You didn’t
I won’t.

But thank God

You did!

Some people believe You were merely a great teacher.

They don’t accept that You worked miracles
but say You were a good man.

No.

That they cannot say.

You declared:

“I am the way, the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through me.”
