Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“…God…calls you into his…glory.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:12)

That’s hard for me to grasp, Jesus.

Your glory is blindingly great
marvelous, magnificent
beyond adequate description.

To be told You’re calling me into that?

Surely not
Not I.

Not this filthy, sinning, slipping and falling soul.

And yet…

How can I refuse You anything?
How dare I miss what You’ve prepared for me?

Too often I’ve played the fool.

But not this time.

If You’re calling, I’m coming.

Yes.
Oh, yes!

Pray this Lazaroo with single minded determination:

“…if anyone competes as an athlete…”
(2 Timothy 2:5)

I can learn a lot from athletes, Jesus.

They do their best to discover their gifts
as You want me to do.

They work hard to develop those gifts
as You tell me to do.

They focus relentlessly on their goal
as You call me to do.

When they fall short, they get up and try again
as You enable me to do.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“Come, O Zion!”
(Zechariah 2:7)

To be called by You, Jesus?

Nuthin’ better.

Means I’m one of the chosen.

King’s kid.
Gonna live forever.

Comes with Your patented protection package:

You’ll never leave me, never forsake me.

Whoever wants to get to me
has to get through You.

And nobody gets through You.

Everything that happens to me
is for my good.

If it doesn’t have the potential to help me
it doesn’t happen.

Call me, LORD!

I’m a-comin’.
