Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“So, as the Holy Spirit says: ‘Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts…’”
(Hebrews 3:7-8)

That’s a big “if,” Jesus.

Most people haven’t heard Your voice.

Except…if I’ve read the Bible

or heard a preacher or teacher proclaiming Your Word

I guess I have heard from You.

So I’m not off the hook, am I?

Looks like I’d better not harden my heart. Smile

O God!

Help me make my heart totally responsive to You!

Pray this Lazaroo in growing awe:

“He also repaired the wall of the Pool of Siloam…”
(Nehemiah 3:15)

Pretty amazing, Jesus.

There was no way Shallun could have guessed
what would one day happen there.

Five hundred years later, You healed the eyes of a man born blind.

You put mud on his eyes
then sent him to wash in the Pool of Siloam.

When he did, he could see!

It makes me wonder:

What will You do in the future
with my simple acts of obedience today?

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck.”
(Proverbs 3:3)

Many of Your people have taken this command literally, Jesus.

They’ve made necklaces and choke chains of these words
and worn them day after day.

That’s a good thing!

It’s a reminder of what matters.
It sure beats the jewelry a lot of people wear.

But I suspect You intend that command to extend beyond wearable Scripture

all the way to my actions.

Today.

Be filled with hope, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“From this day on…”
(Haggai 2:18)

That’s my rallying cry, Jesus:

“From this day on!”

There’s not one thing I can do to erase the past.

It’s done.

No matter how much I wish I could

I can’t undo it.

True, I can repent, apologize, repair –

and with Your help I will!

But what energizes me and gives me hope

is that the next chapter of my life hasn’t been written.

I’m collaborating with You on it

today.
