Pray this Lazaroo in patient trust:

“…out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you. For we wanted to come to you—certainly I, Paul, did, again and again…”
(1 Thessalonians 2:17-18)

Sometimes it’s not how badly I want it, is it, Jesus?

I mean…if the Apostle Paul intensely desired something and didn’t get it –

I’m talking about the man
through whom You raised the dead

the man through whom You gave us
more New Testament books than any other –

then, who am I to think I might not have to wait

for Your perfect time.

Mean it all the way to the marrow of your bones, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:17)

Paul really wanted this, Jesus

and You didn’t give it to him!

Through Paul You gave us much of the New Testament!

Through Him You healed the sick and raised the dead!

But when he passionately desired something outside of Your will

You said no.

Just because he thought it was best didn’t mean it was.

So, please, LORD:

Do the same for me.

Pray this Lazaroo with unvarnished transparency:

“My groans are many…”
(Lamentations 1:22)

I can usually do a lot of groaning

before I realize it, Jesus.

Other people might complain about my complaints

while they only seem justified to me.

But when I’m the one who notices I’m doing a lot of groaning

that’s an indication that things have become

pretty intense.

Do You get tired of hearing me groan, Father?

Or are You waiting for me to turn them
into believing, trusting, heartfelt prayers?

Pray this Lazaroo with laser focus:

“But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.”
(James 1:25)

So let me get this straight, Jesus:

If I intend to experience sweet success
I dare not read my Bible aimlessly.

Instead, You want me to read it with singleness of purpose –
to discover exactly how You want me to live

then live it.
