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 bottomless trust:

“…the little ones you said would be taken captive…”
(Deuteronomy 1:39)

The Israelites in the desert missed that prediction, Jesus.

They looked at their circumstances
concluding they knew where their steps were taking them.

But they were 100% wrong.

I’m ashamed to admit I can identify.

When will I stop looking behind me and around me
to guess the future?

The only direction I need to look is up –

straight to You –

the One who determines my every step.

Pray this Lazaroo, in tender response:

“…show me your face…”
(Songs of Songs 2:14)

Solomon made that request of his bride, Jesus

do You make that request of me?

It’s certainly possible.

The Apostle Paul makes it clear that everything written in the past
was put in Your Word to teach us.

So why would You want me to show You my face?

You made me.
You already know what I look like.

Oh.

When I show You my face
I’m intimately focused on You.
