Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“The man said, ‘The woman you put here with me…’”
(Genesis 3:12)

When You confronted Adam with his sin, Jesus

He immediately blamed You.

You’re the one who created Eve.

You’re the one who made her the kind of person she was.

Of course, Adam was overlooking one tiny issue:

You took her out of him.

Whatever was in her

she got from him.

O God! When You have to confront me

may I repent

rather than blame someone else.

Stay focused as you pray this Lazaroo:

 “But you have turned from the way…”
(Malachi 2:8)

Your way is the only road worth traveling, Jesus –

where joy arises
where growth occurs
where good takes place
where people are healed
where hope springs eternal
where amazing things happen
where bad people become good
where good people become great
where nobodies become somebody
where broken relationships are restored

Why would I ever turn from Your way?

            There is not one good reason
            In all this sick old world.

Seek true perspective, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“After he has honored me…”
(Zechariah 2:8)

That’s what comes first, isn’t it, Jesus?

Or at least it should.

First I honor You

then You honor me.

You’re first.

I’m last.

You’re the head.

I’m the tail.

You’re the top.

I’m the bottom.

But all too often I get it backwards.

I wait to thank and praise You
until I notice You’ve done something I like

shamefully overlooking the countless blessings with which You shower me

every single day.
