Lazaroo – Thursday, April 25, 2013
No comments, Apr 25, 2013
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with renewed zeal:
“I brought you up out of Egypt…”
(Amos 2:10)
Yes, You did, Jesus.
You absolutely did.
Egypt was the land of captivity for Your people Israel.
I know my own land of captivity.
I know it well.
I sometimes forget what I was before You stooped down and brought me up out of Egypt.
I sometimes forget where I was before You stooped down and brought me up out of Egypt.
I sometimes forget where I was headed before You stooped down and brought me up out of Egypt.
Nowhere.
Well, that’s not exactly true.
I was headed nowhere good.
I sometimes forget what life was like before You stooped down and brought me up out of Egypt.
But not today.
Today I fall on my face and praise You for all You
have done
are doing
will do
for me.
