Admit it – as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:11-12)

One more strong reminder, Jesus:

No matter how self-sufficient I feel
I’m not going to do as well all by myself.

No matter how antisocial my personality
sooner or later I’m gonna need somebody.

Please lead me to the right somebody.

Pray this Lazaroo with steely determination:

“…save others by snatching them from the fire…”
(Jude 1:23)

I’m thinking of three ways to save people, Jesus:

1. Encourage them to develop a Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment 1on1 relationship with You.

2. Warn them not to sin.

3. Go after them and rescue them when they’re steeped in wrongdoing.

That last is the hardest.

People who are up to their ears in evil seldom want to hear about You.

But because You command me to do it

I will!

Pray this Lazaroo with deepened understanding:

“You have wearied the Lord with your words. ‘How have we wearied him?’ you ask. By saying, ‘All who do evil are good in the eyes of the Lord, and he is pleased with them’ or ‘Where is the God of justice?’”
(Malachi 2:17)

So let me get this straight, Jesus:

You’re sick to death of our whining that life isn’t fair!

We’re making our judgments

based on three or four factors

while You know what’s really going on
with literally trillions of factors.

We’re trying to track what’s happening

with our tiny circle of family and friends

while You’re tracking the 24/7 lives
of all eight billion people on this planet

while laying groundwork
for the billions about to be born.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts.”
(Acts 3:1-2)

Peter and John thought they were there to pray, Jesus.

The lame man thought he was there to beg.

All three were about to discover:

You had a little something else in mind!
