Lazaroo – Wednesday, July 18, 2012
No comments, Jul 18, 2012
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in peaceful, secure confidence:
“…the Father of the heavenly lights…does not change like shifting shadows.”
(James 1:17)
I love that about You, Jesus:
I can count on You.
You don’t say one thing today
and trot out something totally contradictory the next.
You’re not in a good mood when I leave the house this morning
and in a bad mood when I come home tonight.
You don’t make a promise this afternoon
then withdraw it next week.
You don’t tell me warm, loving things to my face
then rip me to shreds behind my back.
You’re consistent
solid
reliable
steadfast
trustworthy
dependable
steady
faithful
firm
secure.
Somehow, You manage to be all that
without ever being boring
stiff
predictable
inflexible
stuck in a rut.
No, you don’t change like shifting shadows.
But I can count on You to be
fresh
creative
surprising
and utterly, captivatingly
wonderful.
