Pray this Lazaroo with unvarnished transparency:

“My groans are many…”
(Lamentations 1:22)

I can usually do a lot of groaning

before I realize it, Jesus.

Other people might complain about my complaints

while they only seem justified to me.

But when I’m the one who notices I’m doing a lot of groaning

that’s an indication that things have become

pretty intense.

Do You get tired of hearing me groan, Father?

Or are You waiting for me to turn them
into believing, trusting, heartfelt prayers?

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“Love your neighbor as yourself…”
(James 2:8)

Easy to say, Jesus…

harder to do.

Some people are easy to love, even to sacrifice for.

Other people are a challenge-and-a-half.

Nor are You saying I should love them the way I like to be loved.

You’re saying I should love them
the way they want to be loved.

Wow.

What if they want to be loved in a way I don’t like?

You sure do stretch a person.

Pray this Lazaroo in ardent, longing love:

“The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.”
(1 Corinthians 2:10)

I can’t thank You enough for that, Jesus!

‘cause I sure can’t figure a whole lot of stuff out.

I can’t even figure myself out –
let alone other people and situations.

But it’s “the deep things of God” that I most long to understand!

I suspect that if I knew those

I’d be able to better understand what’s going on
everywhere else in the world.

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But the fields and villages around the city were given to Caleb…”
(1 Chronicles 6:56)

Some of us get the big cities, Jesus

others the fields and smaller towns.

You place each of us where – if we trust You with our whole hearts –

we can thrive.

Interestingly, one may be best for a season

and the other best in the next season of life.

I may have to learn these truths the hard way

but it’s worth the cost.

 Pray this Lazaroo with humility:

“Next to him Meshullam son of Berekiah, the son of Meshezabel, made repairs, and next to him Zadok son of Baana also made repairs.”
(Nehemiah 3:4)

That’s what it takes to accomplish a great task, isn’t it, Jesus?

a lot of people doing their part.

They might not do it as well as I would.

They might do it better. 😉

I do have to work like it all depends on me

without ever forgetting
that it doesn’t.
