Pray this Lazaroo in everlasting gratitude:

“…he will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 4:26)

Are there any sweeter words in any language, Jesus?

Maybe…but not many.

I know my sins.

Not all of them, certainly.
There are too many to keep count.

But some of those I do remember haunt me.

I wish I had never committed them.
In fact, I can’t think of a single sin I don’t regret.

But O Jesus!

I’m stunned!

Because of my faith in You
You’ve forgiven all my sins!

Forever!

Pray this Lazaroo with Biblical perspective:

“…all people are like grass…”
(1 Peter 1:24)

That sounds harsh, Jesus

but it isn’t.

It’s a priceless reminder:

I’m one of those pieces of grass

here for an incredibly short while
gone in a heartbeat

my spot in the turf quickly replaced
by new grass…weeds…dirt.

I could be depressed by this revelation

but I’m not.

I’m motivated to make every moment count

knowing that because of my faith in You
my brief, grassy stay here

becomes life eternal.
