Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit

“Afterward the Israelites will return…”
(Hosea 3:5)

That’s what it usually takes for me to return to You, Jesus…

a sign, a tragedy, an event, a message
something that rocks my world.

Only then do I do what I should have done without any push from You:

Turn around, head in the right direction
all the way back home.

Of course, if we’re talking what I should have done…

I never should have strayed from You to begin with.

Take heed, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then the word of the LORD came…”
(Jonah 3:1)

That word, “Then” is huge, isn’t it, Jesus?

It implies that something went before it.

Did it ever!

Jonah had a near-death experience
orchestrated by You.

Now that You had his attention

You gave him his marching orders.
Again.

I can do what Jonah did and wait for the “then,” can’t I?

Or I can skip the near-death experience and pay attention –
which Jonah should have done the first time.
