Pray this Lazaroo in utter amazement:

“…you notice me…”
(Ruth 2:10)

Ruth was stunned to be noticed by Boaz, Jesus.

She didn’t know You were at work
preparing his heart to be her husband

preparing her to become great-grandmother to King David
whose line extended all the way

to You.

But she was too humble to predict any of that!

Rise up in me with that same humility, Holy Spirit!

Knowing I don’t deserve to be noticed
being thrilled when –

because of Your love and mercy –

I am.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…refresh my heart in Christ.”
(Philemon 1:20)

There are a lot of ways I might try to get refreshed, Jesus:

take a shower.
down a delicious glass of iced tea.
experience the luxury of a good night’s sleep.

But nothing in this world compares

to the refreshment of my heart in You!

You fill me with spiritual energy

higher purpose
boundless hope.

To see You at work in my life and in the lives of those I love?

Priceless.

Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“She was taken to King Xerxes in the royal residence in the tenth month…”
(Esther 2:16)

How demeaning, Jesus –

to be plucked from her home
deprived of her rights

trained for months in the King’s harem
delivered to the king for acceptance or rejection.

And You were working through all of it!

positioning her to become queen to save the lives of Your people

just as You are working through my hardships and humiliations

to accomplish Your eternal good.
