Pray this Lazaroo with heartfelt gratitude:

“The land by the sea will become pastures having wells for shepherds…”
(Zephaniah 2:6)

That is so like You, Jesus!

Even while You punish

You bless.

You take away one thing

and give another.

It’s who You are: Loving, Generous, Forgiving, Merciful –

which is why I’m still drawing my next breath…

experiencing Your gracious gift of life…

walking this earth.

If that was not who You are

I would have been drawn, quartered and fried to a crisp

long, long ago.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“…to keep themselves alive.”
(Lamentations 1:19)

Which, of course, is something I don’t have the power to do, Jesus.

I can eat.
I can work to buy food.

I can go to the doctor
take medicine.

I can go to the gym, work out, jog, lift weights
do my best to get in tip-top shape.

But try though I might, I can’t keep life in my body.

You alone have the ultimate power of life and death.
You alone.
