Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not? Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! You have begun to reign—and that without us!”
(1 Corinthians 4:7-8)

My stupid, blind, unreasoning pride, Jesus!

Where does it come from?

Certainly not from You.

I do believe

it has the sulfurous smell from the fiery pits of hell
all over it.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“LORD, I have heard of your fame; I stand in awe of your deeds, LORD.”
(Habakkuk 3:2)

You can do anything, Jesus.

Already, You’ve pretty much done everything.

Creating the heavens and earth was amazing.
So were Your virgin birth, healing the blind
walking on water, raising the dead
rising from Your tomb on the third day.

By comparison, my requests seem puny

but they’re a big deal to me.

I know You can.

With bated breath, I’m waiting and hoping

that You Will.

Pray this Lazaroo with heartfelt passion:

“You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich…”
(Revelation 3:17-18)

I know I’m not “rich,” Jesus –

not the way the church of Laodicea claimed to be.

Nevertheless, I fully embrace Your counsel to them:

Sell me Your gold refined in the fire –

so I can become rich
in those ways only You desire!

Pray this Lazaroo with humility:

“…if you rely on the law and boast in God; if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark, an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of little children…”
(Romans 2:17-20)

You’re kind of hard on those of us who think we’re “all that,” aren’t You, Jesus?

as well You should be.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Moses said…‘I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue.’ The Lord said to him, ‘Who gave human beings their mouths? Who makes them deaf or mute? Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Is it not I, the Lord?’”
(Exodus 4:10-11)

Please forgive me, Jesus

for all the times I’ve pulled out that same lame excuse

and told You why I couldn’t do what You’ve told me to do.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“While Jesus was having dinner at Levi’s house, many tax collectors and sinners were eating with him and his disciples, for there were many who followed him. When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: ‘Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?’”
(Mark 2:15-16)

These Pharisees didn’t get it, did they, Jesus?

They were sinners, too.

Please, please, please:

Never let me become that blind.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful awareness:

“Now some teachers of the law were sitting there, thinking to themselves, ‘Why does this fellow talk like that? He’s blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?’”
(Mark 2:6-7)

When you forgave this man’s sins, Jesus

these religious experts made an astute observation:

“Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

But they were blind to the reality

that they were hearing those words of forgiveness

from God Himself.

Who can forgive my countless sins?

Oh, Jesus!
Only You.

Pray this Lazaroo in growing awe:

“He also repaired the wall of the Pool of Siloam…”
(Nehemiah 3:15)

Pretty amazing, Jesus.

There was no way Shallun could have guessed
what would one day happen there.

Five hundred years later, You healed the eyes of a man born blind.

You put mud on his eyes
then sent him to wash in the Pool of Siloam.

When he did, he could see!

It makes me wonder:

What will You do in the future
with my simple acts of obedience today?

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“If you have any…compassion…”
(Philippians 2:1)

Some people don’t, Jesus –

at least not that I can tell.

Of course, maybe they have it, but I’m not seeing it.

I might be expecting them to show it in one way
while they’re showing it in another.

Maybe I have such a focused agenda, such strong opinions

that I’m totally blind
to the different expressions of compassion in others

…as they may be to mine.

But You see.

That’s all that matters.
