Face it…as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…all will be condemned who…have delighted in wickedness.”
(2 Thessalonians 2:12)

At its best, Jesus…

wickedness isn’t as good as advertised.

Fun? Yes, it can be.

Pleasure? For sure.

But it’s not quite all that.

So I have to hype and pretend
to make up for the oversell –

a glass of over-steeped iced tea
short six teaspoons of sugar.

But the worst part is how quickly it’s over

…when I’m left with the aftermath

…the emptiness

…and the consequences.

Pray this Lazaroo with heartfelt emotion:

“It gave me great joy…”
(3 John 1:3)

Not everybody can say that, Jesus.

Some people don’t have the capacity for any kind of joy
let alone great joy.

Oh, they know what fun is

they can laugh, have a good time
feel good, experience positive emotions

but joy?

Huh-uh.

Joy – true joy – comes solely from You.

Someone might even believe they’ve been joyful
until You give them a taste of the real thing

and blow their minds.

Pray this Lazaroo with undiluted sincerity:

“…your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow on account of me.”
(Philippians 1:26)

I’d love for somebody’s joy in You…

to be my fault, Jesus!

I hope that’s already happened –

but if so, I’d like it to happen again

and again
and again.

In fact, if You want to use me to spread Your joy to everyone I know

I couldn’t be happier about it.

Fun can be had.

Joy, on the other hand, has to be granted

by You.
