Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the sinners and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: ‘Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?’ On hearing this, Jesus said to them, ‘It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.’”
(Mark 2:16-17)

So if I don’t recognize that I’m a sick sinner, Jesus…

You didn’t come for me.

Oh, but I am!

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“Arise, Lord, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice. Let the assembled peoples gather around you, while you sit enthroned over them on high.”
(Psalms 7:6-7)

When I see evil people getting away with outrageous atrocities, Jesus

this is the kind of prayer I want to pray!

I want the whole world to see what You do
to punish those who sin

until, stunned

I remember I’m a sinner, too.

Pray this Lazaroo with driven desire:

“But if, in seeking to be justified in Christ, we Jews find ourselves also among the sinners, doesn’t that mean that Christ promotes sin? Absolutely not!”
(Galatians 2:17)

It kills me to admit it, Jesus

but I sometimes find myself among the sinners.

That doesn’t mean You promote or excuse or overlook sin.

It means You’ve saved someone
who still needs a whole lot of work!

I’m ready to go to work, Holy Spirit.

Please.
I beg You:

Help me.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“…you surround [the righteous] with your favor as with a shield.”
(Psalms 5:12)

What a promise, Jesus! What incredible assurance!

If only I were righteous.

I don’t have to tell You: I’m a sinner.

You’re the one who’s righteous.
I’m the one who’s not.

Except…

because I put all my faith and trust and hope in You
and because You’ve forgiven every sin I’ve ever committed…

am I now standing –

not in my own righteousness –

but in Yours?

Oh, hallelujah!

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-bursting love:

“The punishment inflicted on him by the majority is sufficient.”
(2 Corinthians 2:6)

I love that about You, Jesus!

Yes – unlike some suppose – You punish.

But You know exactly when to stop punishing the sinner

to give them a chance to catch their breath

repent

and start over with renewed hope.

Of course, there’s another crowd.

They’re always disappointed
when You don’t smash the sinner into oblivion.

But as the repentant sinner You haven’t hopelessly smashed

I’m beyond grateful.
