Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with no-holds-barred surrender:

“I did not want to do anything without your consent…”*
(Philemon 1:14)

That’s a tough goal, Jesus.

It sounds good
appears fair

but what if this key person doesn’t give their consent?

Am I to allow that to stop me?

What if I’m convinced I have to act?
What if I believe You want me to act?

Then I have to obey You
whether or not I have their consent.

Right?

Except…what if the confirmation

that protects me from self-delusion
that proves I have indeed heard from You

depends on their consent?
