Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“Dispatches were sent by couriers to all the king’s provinces with the order to destroy, kill and annihilate all the Jews—young and old, women and children—on a single day, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, and to plunder their goods.”
(Esther 3:13)

How could such an evil thing happen, Jesus –

especially to Your chosen people?

It was because You were about to rescue them
and also destroy their enemies!

Help me to remember that

next time something evil shows up at my door.

Take heed, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“They are…arrogant…”
(Romans 1:29-30)

Arrogance is pretty hard to stomach, Jesus.

When I see it, I cringe.

Sadly, it almost always shows up in those You’ve blessed!

Instead of realizing their gifts, skills and triumphs are from You
they believe it’s all because of them.

They think it’s due to their hard work, their brilliance
their superiority over others

which sets them up for Your inevitable punishment

and their disgrace.

May I never, ever – ever!

follow in their footsteps.

Pray this Lazaroo in tearful confidence:

“People have heard my groaning, but there is no one to comfort me.”
(Lamentations 1:21)

That’s the hardest, Jesus.

When I keep my suffering to myself
it’s not a surprise that no one comforts me.

But when my pain increases to the point that I’m forced to cry out
and still no one shows up with love and compassion

my agony is multiplied by the stunning realization
that I’m abandoned
forsaken
alone.

Except I’m not!
Hallelujah!!

I have You.
