See if you can keep track of this Lazaroo!

“Makir took a wife from among the Huppites and Shuppites.”
(1 Chronicles 7:15)

It’s fascinating to trace the ancestry of these people, Jesus!

Jacob and Rachel had two sons: Joseph and Benjamin.

Rachel died while giving birth to Benjamin
who was an ancestor of the Huppites and Shuppites.

Makir was the grandson of Benjamin’s other brother Joseph.

So when Makir chose a Huppite-Shuppite girl
he was marrying a many-times-removed cousin!

If that matters to You…

it matters to me.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“Eli’s sons were wicked men…”
(1 Samuel 2:12)

That’s every parent’s nightmare, Jesus!

Well…perhaps not every parent.
There may be evil parents who want evil children.

But even those parents
don’t want their children to be evil to them.

You haven’t given us control over our children.

If You had, our parents could have controlled us.

At best, parents have only example and influence.

But please, God! Hear the brokenhearted parent’s prayer:

Rescue and restore the children who stray.
