Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“All my enemies…rejoice at what you have done.”
(Lamentations 1:21)

Wow. Not only am I suffering at Your hands, Jesus

but those who hate me are jumping up and down with glee.

I could throw a fit. Give up. Quit.

Tempting.

But no.
You deserve better.

So I’ll humble myself, attempt to understand why You’re doing this

learn from it, take my lumps
trusting You in Your mercy to do something through me

that makes my enemies stop laughing.

Take heed, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then the word of the LORD came…”
(Jonah 3:1)

That word, “Then” is huge, isn’t it, Jesus?

It implies that something went before it.

Did it ever!

Jonah had a near-death experience
orchestrated by You.

Now that You had his attention

You gave him his marching orders.
Again.

I can do what Jonah did and wait for the “then,” can’t I?

Or I can skip the near-death experience and pay attention –
which Jonah should have done the first time.

Pray this Lazaroo with informed perspective:

“…he began to draw back…”
(Galatians 2:12)

There’s a time to draw back, Jesus –

when I’ve made a mistake.

But sometimes it’s a mistake to draw back.

The great Apostle Peter was making that mistake.

How many times have I drawn back when I shouldn’t have

or failed to draw back when I should?

That’s done. In the past.

You want me to learn from it
not obsess over it.

From now on

may I listen solely to You.
