Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate…Who knows? He may turn and relent and leave behind a blessing—”
(Joel 2:13-14)

Why do You treat us so much better than we deserve, Jesus?

It’s Your deep, abiding love, isn’t it?

Hallelujah!
Thank You!

But I can’t let it stop here, can I?

There are those who’ve wronged me
even as I have wronged You.

May I extend to them
Your deep, abiding love!

Pray this Lazaroo with overflowing gratitude:

“Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.”
(Joel 2:13)

O Jesus!

Yes!

I never want to stray, never want to sin, never want to disappoint You.

But when I do –

for sadly, I have many times –

don’t let me stay out there in the wilderness!

Bring back this wandering sheep to You!

For You are indeed loving, gracious, compassionate!

You would far rather bless me

than punish.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…welcome him…”
(Philemon 1:17)

Some people are easy to welcome, Jesus.

They’re outgoing, gracious, humble, fun.

Other people…not so much.

They’re surly, selfish, egotistic.
Some are downright mean, devious, evil.

Do You want me to welcome everybody?

No, You don’t.

You tell me to have nothing to do with some of them

not even eat with them.

But that doesn’t mean they can’t change.

With You, all things are possible.

My prayer?

In heaven

that You will welcome me.
