As you pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, get in touch with your desire to thrill the heart of Your God:

“If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.”
(1 John 1:6)

I know Your grace is real, Jesus.

You don’t punish me as I deserve.
Mercy matters more to You than payback
Your love covers over all my sins.

What You did for me on the cross gave me a brand new start!

But Your love does not grant me a license to sin.

When I keep giving in to temptation

I throw away so much of what You’ve done for me
I block You from working through me to the full extent You desire

I squander opportunity after opportunity

I will never even know I missed.

O God!

I don’t want to drag myself into heaven

staggering under the load of my favorite sins
that I loved almost as much

as I love You.
