Pray this Lazaroo with profound gratitude:

“Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.”
(Song of Songs 3:5)

It sounds like Solomon’s wife may have learned the hard way, Jesus:

Don’t force it.

Or even better:

You can’t force it!

True love is a choice.

Which is why I’m thrilled to realize:

You chose to love me!

which is why with all my heart:

I choose to love You!

Pray this Lazaroo with God-given love:

“If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them.”
(1 John 2:15)

This is a hard teaching, Jesus.

It’s easy to love the world
because I can see it in all its stunning beauty

It’s harder to love You as You deserve –

because although Your love for me is amazing
and Your works are everywhere to behold

You Yourself are invisible.

That’s probably why so many religions resort to idols.

But I choose to love You!
