Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“You have wearied the Lord with your words.”
(Malachi 2:17)

I don’t want to do that to You, Jesus!

In fact, I didn’t think I could.
I didn’t think You ever grew tired or weary.

But You don’t become weary from the mighty miracles You perform.

What wearies You is when I don’t do
what I say I’ll do.

You’re sick to death of empty words.

O God! Forgive me!

May I always – in Your strength –
keep my word to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with passionate desire:

“…the LORD has a charge to bring against you…: ‘There is no faithfulness…’”
(Hosea 4:1)

That was the awful situation in Israel, Jesus!

Are we any better today?
I fervently hope so.

But what we call faithfulness

may not be faithful at all in Your eyes –
because You see into our hearts.

How many of the righteous acts I perform are for You

and how many are to make me look good?

O God!

The answer must be:

Zero.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble willingness:

“They also repaired…as far as the Dung Gate.”
(Nehemiah 3:13)

But that’s where they stopped, Jesus.

Can’t blame them a bit.

The gate through which the excrement of humans and animals was disposed of

was not an attractive place –
especially when the wind was blowing the wrong direction!

But oh, what an important service that gate performed –

along with those who transported
their odoriferous cargo through it!

Make me willing to do the necessary tasks

no one wants to do.
