Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Though you, Israel, commit adultery, do not let Judah become guilty.”
(Hosea 4:15)

A command like that is hard to obey, Jesus.

Certainly, a person caught in sin might wish for better
for someone they truly love.

But it’s incredibly hard to tell someone:

“Don’t do as I’ve done.
Do as I say.”

A bad example is a tall, tall mountain to climb.

From this moment forward, help me set a good example

for everyone I want to see live for You!

Pray this Lazaroo in sobered awareness:

“I will not punish your daughters when they turn to prostitution, nor your daughters-in-law when they commit adultery, because the men themselves consort with harlots and sacrifice with shrine prostitutes—a people without understanding will come to ruin!”
(Hosea 4:14)

Give me understanding, Jesus!

Especially help me grasp the power of my example.

You certainly do –

excusing the sins of these young women
because of the awful example set before them.

May everyone who looks to me

safely follow my steps

as I follow Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo with opened eyes:

“If you do not commit adultery but do commit murder, you have become a lawbreaker.”
(James 2:11)

Pretty obvious, Jesus –

when I see it in somebody else.

But You’re pointing this out through Your half-brother James

because I have a hard time seeing it in myself.

I tend to look at other people’s sins as foolish, tragic, inexcusable

while seeing my own sins as no big deal.

How blind can I be?

I think I’ve already answered that question.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…her paths [lead] to the spirts of the dead.”
(Proverbs 2:18)

You’re speaking of those who commit adultery, Jesus

who betray their marriage partners
in affairs and one night stands.

That choice leads to death of so many kinds, doesn’t it?

Death of trust, hopes, dreams
stability, innocence.

But having said that

I cannot begin to thank You enough
for the new life of Your mercy.

Even for the worst of us

You’re the God of the Second Chance.
