Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“…what I dreaded has happened to me.”
(Job 3:25)

They hang over all of us, Jesus –

these fears of what might happen.

You spare us from so many of them!

Hallelujah! Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

But not from all.

Sometimes, what we most wanted to escape
grabs us around the neck in its cruel clutches.

The thing is…

You could have kept that from happening.

But You didn’t.

Because in deep, faithful love

You know best.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“What I feared has come upon me…”
(Job 3:25)

Why do You allow this to happen, Jesus?

Is it because You want to show me

that because I have You
I have nothing and no one to fear?

You don’t want me to live in fear, do You?

I don’t want me to live in fear, either!

So since we’re agreed

please deliver me from all fear

except the fear of displeasing You.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“I came to you in…fear…”
(1 Corinthians 2:3)

What, Jesus?

The great Apostle Paul approached one of his assignments

in fear?

Why?

You had worked miracle after miracle through him

like raising the dead.

I would have thought he’d be fearless!

Besides, there’s a Biblical command:
You tell us not to fear.

But obedience is one thing

emotion is another.

Like Paul, please help me obey You to the end

to the letter

no matter how much I fear.
