Pray this Lazaroo with a higher perspective:

“I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God.”
(Ecclesiastes 3:12-13)

Those are a gift from You, Jesus!

But not everyone gets to enjoy them.

Some of the best people You’ve created

experience a brutally hard life on this earth.

But because of their steadfast faithfulness to You

their forever is going to be oh, so sweet!

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate indignation:

“Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors, pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk, so that he can gaze on their naked bodies!”
(Habakkuk 2:15)

They were doing that 2,600 years ago, Jesus

and they’re still doing it today.

But this isn’t merely about drunkenness, nudity and voyeurism, is it?

In that case, we might think it doesn’t apply to us.

This is about taking advantage of someone.

Now that…

may hit a little closer home.

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“‘I sent rain on one town, but withheld it from another. One field had rain; another had none and dried up. People staggered from town to town for water but did not get enough to drink, yet you have not returned to me,’ declares the Lord.”
(Amos 4:7-8)

I must be missing some of the signs You’re giving me, Jesus.

While I’m wondering why in the world these things are happening to me

You’re saying:

“Return to Me!”

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Over the table of the Presence they are to spread a blue cloth and put on it the plates, dishes and bowls, and the jars for drink offerings; the bread that is continually there is to remain on it. They are to spread a scarlet cloth over them, cover that with the durable leather and put the poles in place.”
(Numbers 4:7-8)

I have to wonder about that scarlet cloth, Jesus.

Did it stand for the blood You would one day shed

to cover my sins?

Pray this Lazaroo with corrected vision:

“A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God, for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment?”
(Ecclesiastes 2:24-25)

This is how far Solomon’s wisdom can take him, Jesus

limited to what he observes under the sun.

True, everything comes from Your hand!

But there is so much more that is better

than eating, drinking
and liking my work.

Thirst for God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…get a drink from the water jars…”
(Ruth 2:9)

There are a lot of places to get a drink, Jesus.

One would be from a water jar.

But I could also get a drink from

a well
a water fountain
a bottle
a bubbling brook
a juice bar
a soft drink can or bottle
a coffee or tea cup
a canteen.

But the best place to take a long, refreshing drink

is from the Living Water of Your Word.
