Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Indeed, on every high hill and under every spreading tree you lay down as a prostitute.”
(Jeremiah 2:20)

Strong words, Jesus.

Hard to hear.
But even worse, hard for You to see:

Your people worshiping other gods
instead of remaining faithful to You.

That’s exactly how You view me

every time I put someone or something
ahead of obedience to You:

as a prostitute.

Help, LORD!

That’s not what I want You to see when You look at me.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“Because of you the LORD became angry with me…”
(Deuteronomy 1:37)

Well…not exactly, Jesus.

You didn’t become angry with Moses
because of what the Israelites did.

You became angry with Moses
because of his response to what they did.

Everybody stands before You for their own actions –

not those of someone else –

because we’re all accountable directly to You.

So maybe I’d better focus on my own
thoughts, words, actions

instead of trying to control – or blame – somebody else.
