Pray this Lazaroo with grateful specificity:

“The word of the LORD came to Haggai a second time on the twenty-fourth day of the month.”
(Haggai 2:20)

That’s nailing it down pretty tight, Jesus

right to the day.

You appreciate it when I thank You generically

“…for all You’ve done.”

But that’s a prayer that, if I’m not careful

…can be uttered almost without thinking.

How much better when I remember exactly what You did for me

how You did it

and when You did it!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Just then Boaz arrived from Bethlehem and greeted the harvesters, ‘The LORD be with you!’”
(Ruth 2:4)

That’s a wonderful greeting, Jesus

so long as it’s sincere.

But greetings have a way of being repeated so often

that they totally lose their meaning
and I parrot them without thinking about what I’m saying.

Cure me of that, Father!

If I bless someone by saying:

“The LORD be with you!”

May I say what I mean

and mean what I say.
