Pray this Lazaroo in solemn introspection:

“…keep yourselves in God’s love…”
(Jude 1:21)

Your love is legendary, Jesus.

No matter how many times I mess up

You forgive me.

HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!

But this command from You through your half-brother Jude

reminds me that I bear a clear and definite responsibility.

If I deliberately and repeatedly sin against You
thinking to take advantage of your love

I might want to think again.

Would anyone who truly belongs to You

callously, premeditatively
do such a thing?

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed resolve:

“I have become its servant by the commission God gave me…”
(Colossians 1:25)

You’ve also given me a commission, Jesus!

I’m supposed to share Your good news
with those who don’t yet know You.

I like what everybody thinks St. Francis of Assisi had to say about that:

Preach the gospel at all times.
If necessary, use words.

Of course, Francis didn’t say that – but still, it reminds me:

My words have power
only if backed up by my life.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“My soul is in anguish. How long, O LORD, how long?”
(Psalms 6:3)

How many times have I been there, Jesus?

You alone know.
It’s too many for me to count.

But that’s a good thing, isn’t it?

It reminds me that in Your perfect way and time
You rose up and showed Yourself strong!

I don’t have to tell You –

my soul remains in anguish about some things
and especially some people.

But I know:
You’ll come through.
