Pray this Lazaroo with an attentive, grateful heart:

“…one we have had…”
(2 John 1:5)

I keep asking for more, Jesus

when You’ve already loaded me with treasures!

I’m like a child at Christmas frantically unwrapping present after present –

ribbons and paper flying everywhere –
hardly stopping to notice the gifts already unwrapped.

I need to stop with my begging for awhile…

take time to deeply appreciate
the blessings You’ve piled high all around me.

Somewhere in the stack

I may even discover the very thing I need.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“…you have plundered many nations…”
(Habakkuk 2:8)

Some nations are like that, Jesus.

So are some people.

They’re not happy with what You’ve given them.

They want more.

So they steal for themselves

what You’ve given others.

Some of them get away with it

for a while.

But as surely as You’re the righteous Judge

a day of reckoning is coming

swiftly for some
later for others

but from the moment they cross that line

it’s on the way.

Pray this Lazaroo with unquenchable longing:

“…the spring of living water…”
(Jeremiah 2:13)

That’s who You are, Jesus…

and this thirsty pilgrim is grateful beyond words.

You’ve promised that because I’ve chosen to put my faith in You

my soul will never thirst again

my spirit will enjoy the continual refreshing
that only You can provide –

with the caveat that once I’ve tasted and seen how good You are

I will always want more

driven to drink deeply of You

again

and again

and again.
