Lazaroo – Wednesday, February 17, 2010
No comments, Feb 17, 2010
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in holy wonder:
“… the word of truth, the gospel that has come to you.”
(Colossians 1:5-6)
What a miracle, Jesus!
The truth of Your gospel –
Your virgin birth and sinless life
Your death, burial and resurrection
payment in full for my countless sins
and the sins of all who believe
Your return for Your followers
Your reign throughout eternity
the place in heaven You’ve prepared for me
and for all who trust in You
passed along from the first eyewitnesses
who knew and touched You
who ate with You and heard You teach
whose jaws dropped when they saw Your miracles
on down through person after person after person
until somebody told me.
Why me, LORD?
Why did You see to it that I would receive this overwhelmingly good news
while countless millions have never heard Your Name
even once?
The responsibility overwhelms me.
I’ve got to go tell somebody.
