Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he became angry.”
(Jonah 4:1)

There are a lot of things going on right now, Jesus

that seem very wrong to me.

Am I going to be like Jonah?

Am I going to be angry about it
shake my fist in Your face

and charge You with wrongdoing?

Even worse

am I going to lose faith
conclude You no longer intervene
in the affairs of earth?

NO!

I put all my trust in You!

Seek Him now, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a great lion to Judah. I will tear them to pieces and go away; I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them. Then I will return to my lair until they have borne their guilt and seek my faceā€”in their misery they will earnestly seek me.”
(Hosea 5:14-15)

I don’t want it to come to that, Jesus.

Let me own up to my guilt now.

May not misery, but love!

draw me into Your very heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with undiluted sincerity:

“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, ‘children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.’”
(Philippians 2:14-15)

There’s a payoff for doing life Your way, Jesus!

There’s always a payoff.
A very good payoff.

It seldom happens when or how or where I imagined it would

but when it does, I’m blown away.

Still the greatest payoff of all for doing things Your way

is the certain knowledge that I’m putting a smile on Your face.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…those who long for death that does not come…”
(Job 3:21)

It’s pretty easy for human beings to kill themselves, Jesus

if that’s what they really want to do.

But our lives are not our own, are they?

You’re the Life-Giver…
and the Life-Taker.

Only You know when it’s best for me to check in…

and check out.

I’m here for a season to do Your will.

Only when my work is done
will I see Your Face.
