Pray this Lazaroo with all your might:

“But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith…”
(Jude 1:20)

Okay, Jesus.

Faith comes by hearing Your Word.

It also comes by seeing what You have done in the past

and what You’re doing in the present.

So I build myself up in my most holy faith

by paying attention to what you’ve done

and what You’re doing.

But bottom line?

Faith is a gift straight from You.
You’re the one who has to give it.

I look to You!

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“But you, dear friends, build yourselves up…”
(Jude 1:20)

This isn’t a suggestion, is it, Jesus?

It’s a command.

Apparently, getting spiritually stronger

isn’t something that’s going to happen to me
while I lie back and wait.

I’ve got to hit the spiritual gym:

Studying your Word
Praying
Forsaking my sin
Attending church services
Serving
Sharing my faith

Salvation? That’s free.

All I have to do is believe.

But if I truly believe

I’ve got to get to work.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“But you, dear friends…”
(Jude 1:20)

You’re teaching by contrast, aren’t You, Jesus?

First, You describe the behavior of those who sin against You
then You show me how someone who loves You –

and who is loved by You –

behaves.

It’s supposed to give me the incentive I need to do what’s right.

As You can tell:

It’s working! 😉

Great God in Heaven, I beg You:

May it keep working this day, the next day and the next –

all the way Home.

Feel His loving warmth, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But, dear friends…”
(Jude 1:17)

When somebody gets ready to correct me, Jesus

I prefer it to be as a “dear friend.”

Jude wasn’t lying.

That’s how he truly felt toward his brothers and sisters in You.

But You’re the One who gave these words to Jude

to share with us.

With me.

That’s how You see me, isn’t it?

Not only as a person You’ve created,
as a sheep in Your flock

but as Your dearly-loved

Personal friend.
