Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord…and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: ‘a pair of doves or two young pigeons.’”
(Luke 2:22, 24)

Joseph and Mary did what they knew to do for You, Jesus.

Such small things.

But they were obedient to Your Word

leaving the outcome in Your Father’s Hands.

That’s all I can do

but I had better make sure I do it!

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“To those who sold doves he said, ‘Get those out of here! How dare you turn my Father’s house into a market!’ His disciples remembered that it is written: ‘Zeal for your house will consume me.’”
(John 2:16-17)

Does zeal for Your house consume me, Jesus?

It should.
I know it should.

I should care more about the place You have provided for me to worship

than I do about the house where I live.

You first.
Everything else second.

Always.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“How beautiful you are, my darling! Oh, how beautiful! Your eyes behind your veil are doves. Your hair is like a flock of goats descending from the hills of Gilead. Your teeth are like a flock of sheep just shorn, coming up from the washing. Each has its twin; not one of them is alone.”
(Songs of Songs 4:1-2)

No missing teeth!

This cracks me up, Jesus…

and teaches me to be grateful

for those You’ve placed in my life.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.”
(John 2:14-15)

There’s a proper way to handle money in Your courts, Jesus

and there’s a disrespectful way.

When You saw Your holy place being desecrated

You blew the minds of the nonviolent crowd.

Pray this Lazaroo in deep gratitude:

“If, however, they cannot afford two doves or two young pigeons, they are to bring as an offering for their sin a tenth of an ephah of the finest flour for a sin offering.”
(Leviticus 5:11)

I love this about You, Jesus!

You set a high and holy standard
but You never set it beyond our ability to reach

so long as we look to You
for the help only You can give!

Pray this Lazaroo in solemn passion:

“Its slave girls moan like doves…”
(Nahum 2:7)

Oh, Jesus.

The beautiful sound of a dove, ruined!
Turned into heartbroken tragedy.

That’s what sin does to every beautiful thing You’ve created.

I’ve seen it with my own eyes
heard it with my own ears.

I’ve also felt it
when my own sins have cost me dearly.

Never again, LORD! Never again!

May I be reminded to stay ultra close to You
every time I hear the sound of a dove.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“…the cooing of doves is heard in our land.”
(Song of Songs 2:12)

How beautiful, Jesus…

the soothing, healing, peaceful song of the dove

a sign that winter had passed

that spring had come.

During Jesus’ baptism

You descended on Him like a dove, Holy Spirit

signifying that the long winter of our slavery to sin had passed

that the Savior of the world had come
bringing the warming springtime of love, hope and forgiveness

to my weary, frostbitten soul.
