Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“The LORD will restore the splendor of Jacob like the splendor of Israel…”
(Nahum 2:2)

Well, now, Jesus…

that’s some serious splendor.

There was a day when Israel was the greatest nation on earth

envied by all who trembled in her shadow.

No longer.

Her sins have reduced her to a mere wisp
of what she used to be

as will my sins do to me

unless I forsake them, repent
and return with all my heart to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in humbled transparency:

“My people have committed two sins…”
(Jeremiah 2:13)

If only two sins

were all I’ve committed. Jesus

Mine are innumerable.

I can’t count them
and I’m the one who committed them.

If I really wanted a closer count

I’m sure my enemies would help me out.

One reason I can’t count all of them –

other than my bad memory –

is that I’m really good at justifying them

when in reality there is never any excuse
for sinning against You.

Pray this Lazaroo with self awareness:

“…their nobles would not put their shoulders to the work under their supervisors.”
(Nehemiah 3:5)

That’s a pretty stubborn case of laziness, Jesus.

Most people work when their supervisors are standing over them.
It’s when their supervisors leave that lazy people stop work.

“People don’t do what you expect…they do what you inspect.”

But these people refused to work in full view of their bosses!

Shameful.
Inexcusable.

Like the times I sin
even though I know You’re watching.
