Pray this Lazaroo in stunned gratitude:

“The LORD will…again choose…”
(Zechariah 2:12)

When I’ve done what I shouldn’t have, Jesus

sinning against You

when my sins have forced You to discipline me

bringing me pain, sorrow, suffering, excruciating regret

it can feel like You and I will never be close again
that I’ve forever lost the precious intimacy we had –

until, in repentance, I look up in happy, near disbelief

to realize You choose once again

to experience deep, daily, moment-by-moment

1on1 relationship with me.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…remember that at that time you were separate from Christ…”
(Ephesians 2:12)

I don’t like to remember that time, Jesus.

It’s too painful.

But clearly, You want me to remember it!

Why?

Is it so I’ll be grateful for my connection with You now?

I am. I truly am.

Especially remembering what it was like to not have

Your indwelling Presence
the intimacy of our ongoing conversation throughout the day

the sweet assurance of my salvation in heaven.
