Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“The LORD will…again choose Jerusalem.”
(Zechariah 2:12)

It’s devastating to be rejected by You, Jesus!

Of course, that only happens
when we’ve first rejected You.

Justice demands that our rejection of You

should result in our permanent rejection.

But Your mercy triumphs over justice!

When we have been humbled
when we have repented
when we have returned to You with all our hearts

after You have disciplined us less than our sins deserve

oh, hallelujah! You’ll choose us again!

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned gratitude:

“The LORD will…again choose…”
(Zechariah 2:12)

When I’ve done what I shouldn’t have, Jesus

sinning against You

when my sins have forced You to discipline me

bringing me pain, sorrow, suffering, excruciating regret

it can feel like You and I will never be close again
that I’ve forever lost the precious intimacy we had –

until, in repentance, I look up in happy, near disbelief

to realize You choose once again

to experience deep, daily, moment-by-moment

1on1 relationship with me.
