Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:
“He will be called a Nazarene.”
(Matthew 2:23)
To us all these years later, that sounds like a compliment, Jesus.
Thousands of churches worldwide proudly bear that name.
But that wasn’t the case 2,000 years ago.
When Philip told Nathanael that’s what you were called
Nathanael’s reaction says it all:
“Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?”
But Philip’s response was perfect:
“Come and see.”
When I run into a doubter
that’s still the perfect response.
You never disappoint.
