Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…saved through…belief in the truth.”
(2 Thessalonians 2:13)

It’s not my belief, Jesus.

I can’t save myself –
not even with my own self-manufactured belief.

You’re the One who gives me the gift of faith.
I’m saved by the sanctifying work of Your Holy Spirit.

Who gives me the ability to recognize truth when I hear it?

You do.

Who gives me the ability to respond to Your truth

by gratefully turning over to You my whole life?

Only You.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“…saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:13)

It’s sure not by my work, Jesus.

Thank You, Holy Spirit!

My work is spotty.

Sometimes pathetic.

Even when I’m having what for me is a pretty obedient day

my track record says it won’t last.

Oh, I intend for it to!

I beg You to make it happen.

But time and again I drop the ball

and come crawling back to You

asking for forgiveness and mercy.
