Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The crack of whips, the clatter of wheels, galloping horses and jolting chariots!”
(Nahum 3:2)

Sounds I don’t want to hear, Jesus!

Sounds of my impending doom
for all the sins I’ve committed against You.

There’s no denying.

There have been many.
They’re what I deserve.

But they’re not what I want!

Forgive me, LORD!
Rescue me!

Do not hold against me the sins of my past
nor the sins of this very hour.

In Your mercy

Give me my second billionth chance.

Pray this Lazaroo in bursting-with-joy gratitude:

“The grace…”
(Philemon 1:25)

Your grace, Jesus!

What You did for us on the cross –

dying for sins You didn’t, wouldn’t, couldn’t commit.

The guiltiest among us freely pardoned –

going scot-free!

The exact opposite of justice.
Absolutely nothing fair about it.

G.R.A.C.E.: “God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense!”

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

I would never complain that I’m not getting what I deserve.

I don’t want what I deserve!

What I want is Your Total, Ineradicable, Undeserved, Unmerited

Matchless Grace!

Pray this Lazaroo in ardent love:

“…God destined for our glory…”
(1 Corinthians 2:7)

I’m destined for glory, Jesus?

That thought boggles my mind.

I know who I am.
I know what I am.
I know how I speak, how I act, what I’ve done.

Glory…

isn’t exactly what I deserve.

And then that word, “destined!”

That means it’s going to happen.
Signed, sealed, delivered.

But it’s not me.

That’s for sure.

It’s You in me

changing me, transforming me, each day

into Your Likeness.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs.”
(Jonah 2:8)

Well, that’s just not an option for me, Jesus.

I need Your grace!

I don’t want what I deserve.

I know what I’ve “earned”
with my sin, shortcomings, rebellion, disobedience.

I’m doing my best to turn it around.
I’m giving it all I’ve got.

But what I’ve got
isn’t enough.

I still – inexcusably – mess up.

Which is why I so desperately
need Your grace.

Fall on your face in gratitude, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I will show my love to the one I called ‘Not my loved one.’”
(Hosea 2:23)

I don’t know if You’ve ever called me that, Jesus –

“Not my loved one.”

If I understand correctly

You’ve loved me since before I was born.

Although I will say this:

based on my sins too many to count
that’s the name I deserve.

But praise Your precious, holy, loving, merciful, forgiving, sin-eradicating Name!

You haven’t
don’t
won’t

treat me as my sins deserve.
