Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.”
(Genesis 3:23-24)

It doesn’t sound like we’re getting back in there, Jesus.

Certainly not here on this earth.

But there’s a better place than the Garden of Eden, isn’t there?

Heaven!

And for all who put their faith and trust in You

Angels won’t keep us out.
They’ll usher us in.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…the exiles…”
(Obadiah 1:20)

It’s no fun to be an exile, Jesus!

to be kicked out of my home, my homeland
the place I thought would be mine my whole life

…until I discover the better place
You’ve held in store for me.

Maybe the mistakes I’ve made put me here.
Maybe the sins I committed got me booted out.

Or maybe I was obedient to You
and this is my reward.

No matter!

Because of You

this is better.
