Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“…the Levites…took their places…”
(Ezra 3:10)

That’s what I desire, Jesus –

to take my place –
the one You’ve assigned to me
the one You’ve equipped me to fill.

No matter how good it looks

I don’t want somebody else’s place.
It wouldn’t be a fit.

Besides, I’d be blocking them from what’s theirs
and missing what’s mine.

So show me my place!

And if for some reason I keep missing it

just pick me up and put me there.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“They will occupy the fields…”
(Obadiah 1:19)

That’s quite a promise, Jesus

or, depending on my perspective

quite a curse.

It’s stunning…humbling…to learn that You’ve given me someone else’s possessions

also stunning…humbling…to think You might give mine to someone else.

That goes for opportunities too, doesn’t it?

When You call me to do something
how many others first turned You down?

If I fail to obey Your calling
who will You raise up instead, to take my place?
