Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“Scarcely had I passed them when I found the one my heart loves. I held him and would not let him go till I had brought him to my mother’s house, to the room of the one who conceived me.”
(Song of Songs 3:4)

Some people would call her behavior extreme, Jesus.

And maybe it was.

But that’s what love does!

It calls us to sacrifice ourselves

for the sake of another –

which is exactly what You did for me

on the cross.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“Let love and faithfulness never leave you…Then you will win favor and a good name…”
(Proverbs 3:3-4)

Wow. That’s pretty powerful, Jesus.

I usually think about love and faithfulness
being a blessing to others.

But now, You’re reminding me:
It’s a blessing to me, as well.

That’s so much like You!

Every time I do something to please You
or do something for others because You tell me to

it ends up helping me.

I really can’t out-give You!

Pray this Lazaroo in total honesty:

“Whoever loves his brother lives in the light, and there is nothing in him to make him stumble.”
(1 John 2:10)

I must not love all my brothers and sisters, Jesus

because I sure have done my share of stumbling.

The thing is, I do love my brothers and sisters

officially.

But it’s a lot harder to love some of them

actually.

Maybe it would help if I dared to remember how hard it is

to actually
love me.
