Lazaroo – Thursday, October 25, 2012
No comments, Oct 25, 2012
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with deep determination:
“They had no sons…”
(Numbers 3:4)
Pity the person who dies
and leaves behind no children
to carry on Your work.
O Jesus.
This isn’t about ordinary children, is it? –
whether I’m married or single
whether I’m young or old
whether or not I have biological sons and daughters.
When I step off this earth into eternity
I’ve got to leave behind at least one person
who will take the baton You’ve placed in my hand
and run with it
not for a block
not for a mile
for a lifetime –
in such a way
that when they step off this earth into eternity
they leave behind at least one person
who will take the baton You’ve placed in their hand
and run with it
not for a block
not for a mile
for a lifetime
in such a way
that when they step off this earth into eternity…
