Lazaroo – Wednesday, November 5, 2014
No comments, Nov 05, 2014
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with all the sincerity you can muster:
“I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.”
(Philippians 1:23-24)
And that’s what’ll determine my departure date, isn’t it, Jesus?
the moment You want me in heaven
more than I’m needed on earth.
Even though I can’t wait to see heaven, I admit it:
I dread the suffering that usually accompanies dying.
Still… I don’t want to overstay my welcome.
I don’t want to be a hanger-on.
When You know my work here is done…
I want outta here.
