Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“So when we could stand it no longer…”
(1 Thessalonians 3:1)

I love knowing that Paul had that emotion, Jesus!

But it was more than mere emotion, wasn’t it?
You were moving on his heart to do something about it –

which is exactly what he did.

Work through my emotions too, LORD!

May they not be unreliable, leading me astray.
May they instead be guided by You

goading me, prompting me, pushing me, driving me

to do the very things You’ve called me to do!

Pray this Lazaroo in profound gratitude:

“The one who overcomes will not be hurt at all by the second death.”
(Revelation 2:11)

That’s extremely good to know, Jesus…

because the first death scares the livin’ tar out of most of us.

Consequently, hearing there’s a second death out there, just waiting…

doesn’t do just a whole lot for our emotional health.

But as much as I dread the painful dying experience of the first death

I love knowing I don’t have to fear what comes after.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“The next day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee.”
(John 1:43)

Where do You want to go today, Jesus?

‘Cause wherever that is
I’m with You.

Sometimes it’s fun.

Sometimes it’s not.

Depending on where You decide to take me, on any given day it can be

thrilling…terrifying
teaching…tiring
terrific…taxing.

But regardless of my emotions, it doesn’t matter

because there’s nowhere I’d rather be
than with You.

Every single day…all along the way…

I’m sticking to You like glue.

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“…even though they are strangers to you.”
(3 John 1:5)

Countless people are strangers to me, Jesus

but none is a stranger to You.

That knowledge totally changes my mindset, my spirit, my emotions

when I meet someone for the first time.

I realize You made them.
They’re Your idea.

Their gifts, talents, personality
are all designed by You.

How can I not be open to the wonder of them –

and hope they will feel the same about me?

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…it has been granted to you…”
(Philippians 1:29)

I like to think of myself as somebody who’s earned it, Jesus

a person who works hard to get what I’ve got.

But that’s such a self-delusion!

Everything I have…am…know…do
has been granted.

My very self, life, parents, circumstances, gifts, experiences, emotions –

all are gifts from Your loving, generous hand.

Rather than bragging in self-congratulation

pounding my chest with off-putting pride

I should be humbled – filled to the brim with gratitude.
