Pray this Lazaroo in head-shaking amazement:

“Why have I found such favor in your eyes…?”
(Ruth 2:10)

How refreshing is that, Jesus?

In this day of people pounding their chests, swaggering –

I’m so used to hearing:

“It’s about time!”
“I’m the best there is!”
“Check me out!”

But here’s Ruth, so unassuming

that when someone does something nice for her
she’s stunned, not comprehending –

the exact opposite of an attitude of entitlement.

No wonder You selected her to become

one of Your many-times-removed great grandmothers.

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But now he has reconciled you…”
(Colossians 1:22)

I see those words, Jesus

but I don’t understand them.

You’re perfect, sinless, pure, holy.

I’m the exact opposite.

How can the North and South poles be joined together?
How can east and west meet?

A miracle.
We’re talking a miracle.

But as impossible as my reconciliation to You seems

the fact that You would even want
to be reconciled to the likes of me

is the greatest miracle of all.
