Pray this Lazaroo with profound gratitude:

“Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.”
(Song of Songs 3:5)

It sounds like Solomon’s wife may have learned the hard way, Jesus:

Don’t force it.

Or even better:

You can’t force it!

True love is a choice.

Which is why I’m thrilled to realize:

You chose to love me!

which is why with all my heart:

I choose to love You!

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“The watchmen found me as they made their rounds in the city. ‘Have you seen the one my heart loves?’”
(Song of Songs 3:3-4)

Solomon’s wife was frightened – absolutely desperate, Jesus.

All through the night, her husband hadn’t come home.

Sleepless nights are hard.

Even more so, when I’m deeply worried
about someone I love.

At such times, I’m reminded of my utter vulnerability.
My worry won’t keep anyone safe, will it, Father?

Only You!
Only You!
Only You!

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“Until the day breaks and the shadows flee…”
(Song of Songs 2:17)

What a beautiful way to say it, Jesus!

“Until the day breaks…”
means Solomon’s wife desires to be loved all night long

“…and the shadows flee”
means she longs to be loved until high noon.

Me too, LORD! Me too!

And You do –

all day and all night
month after month
year after year

my whole life long until I depart this earth

to exult in Your love forever!

Pray this Lazaroo freed of illusion:

“My lover is mine…”
(Song of Songs 2:16)

What a desperate declaration for Solomon’s wife to make, Jesus

in light of the fact that she was only one of 700 –
not to mention Solomon’s 300 concubines.

The less we human beings possess, Father

the more we pretend to have.

It’s easy for me to see that in this woman’s behavior

but where am I exhibiting the same thing in my own?

Nothing I have is mine.
All is Yours.
