Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“What strength do I have, that I should still hope? What prospects, that I should be patient? Do I have the strength of stone? Is my flesh bronze? Do I have any power to help myself, now that success has been driven from me?”
(Job 6:11-13)

Thank You for sharing Job’s words, Jesus!

Knowing how You blessed him after all this
and how beautifully his life turned out

it sure helps me
when I’m able to identify with his discouraged words!

Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“…before the fierce anger of the LORD comes upon you…”
(Zephaniah 2:2)

That’s the last thing I want, Jesus!

I know You’re unimaginably longsuffering.
I know You’re loving, merciful and kind.
You’re unbelievably patient with me.

But there’s a line, isn’t there?

One I’d better never cross.

The thing is, I can’t see it, can’t tell when I’m close.

So I’d better turn around now

change whatever I know needs to be corrected
while I still can.

Pray this Lazaroo in humility:

“I do wish, brother, that I may have some benefit from you in the Lord…”
(Philemon 1:20)

Sometimes I have to be that direct, Jesus.

When someone is dragging their feet
slow to do what they ought to do

give me the courage to say words that will light a fire under them!

Of course, that’s not always the case.

Sometimes they’re truly following You
and I’m being impatient.

O God!

Give me the wisdom to know the difference!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“When anyone went to a wine vat to draw fifty measures, there were only twenty.”
(Haggai 2:16)

No expectation is more false, Jesus

than when we think we can thumb our noses at You
without consequences.

What throws us off is Your patience with us.

You seldom punish us right away, as we so richly deserve.
You give us time – so much time! –

to repent and turn it around.

How much better to go expecting 50 measures

and find 1000.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“How long must this go on?”
(Habakkuk 2:6)

Sometimes I’m stuck in what seems an intolerable situation, Jesus

which makes it feel like it will never end.

I cry out to You for relief, as though You don’t see and hear and feel.

But You do.

You don’t bring me to such places to hurt me.

You lovingly place me in them to teach me.

All I ask

is that You help me learn my lessons
really, really fast.
