Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But now he has reconciled you…”
(Colossians 1:22)

I see those words, Jesus

but I don’t understand them.

You’re perfect, sinless, pure, holy.

I’m the exact opposite.

How can the North and South poles be joined together?
How can east and west meet?

A miracle.
We’re talking a miracle.

But as impossible as my reconciliation to You seems

the fact that You would even want
to be reconciled to the likes of me

is the greatest miracle of all.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…and through him to reconcile to himself all…things in heaven…”
(Colossians 1:20)

Huge task, Jesus…

though not as big as it once was.

There was that war in heaven where – along with Satan – You had to expel one-third of Your angels

sending them to earth.

Obviously, You’ve given them the gift of free will, too.

At times, though, it becomes a curse, doesn’t it?
when I use it to rebel against You.

When I do, LORD…

Please.
Quickly.

Reconcile me.

Pray this Lazaroo in dumfounded amazement:

“…and through him to reconcile to himself all…things on earth…”
(Colossians 1:20)

Through You, Jesus, God reconciles to Himself

not some things
not even most things.

Everything.

I can understand why God would work miraculously through You to reconcile:

God-fearing men, women and children
churches, hospitals and Rescue Missions
robins, guppies and cute puppies.

But:

bank robbers, rapists and murderers?
bars, brothels and meth labs?
vultures, piranha and jackals?

It may now be officially recorded:

My mind is blown.

Allow yourself to be overwhelmed with gratitude, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…and through him to reconcile to himself all things…”
(Colossians 1:20)

So, Jesus…

I’m one of those things.

You’re the one who reconciles me to God.

My countless sins distanced me from my heavenly Father.
Your once-and-for all sacrifice on the cross brought us back together.

Well…made it possible.

But I still had to respond, didn’t I?
with faith I didn’t have.

So You gave me that, too.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
