Pray this Lazaroo in deepened understanding:

“But after Ahab died, the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.”
(2 Kings 3:5)

When someone is forced, Jesus

it never lasts.

First chance they get to skedaddle – BOOM! They’re gone.

Free will is messy, uncontrollable, sometimes takes forever

but when freely given, at least has a chance

to survive the hard blows of life.

You could force every last one of us to bow before You

but if You did
it wouldn’t mean a thing.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“Mesha king of Moab…had to supply the king of Israel with a hundred thousand lambs…”
(2 Kings 3:4)

That’s a daunting task, Jesus –

especially for someone being forced to do it
or else.

Every task is made harder when I’m being coerced, pressured, threatened

when I’m being forced to try to accomplish it against my will.

But what if I choose to change my attitude?

What if I realize in the big picture

everything I do
is for You.
