Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in sober reflection:

“Then I looked up—and there before me was a man with a measuring line in his hand!”
(Zechariah 2:1)

Am I ready to be measured, Jesus?

No.
Not yet.

In fact, I’d like a lot longer to get ready

before a man shows up to measure me.

I’ll be going along pretty well…

and then something ugly bursts out of me
something unworthy of You.

I hate it when that happens.
Why does it?

Maybe it’s to remind me of how far I’ve come from the person I used to be

and how much farther I have yet to go.
