Lazaroo – Wednesday, October 21, 2009
5 comments, Oct 21, 2009
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in holy fear:
“…on his law he meditates day and night.”
(Psalms 1:2)
How can I get there, Jesus?
Show me how somebody like me
can come to the place where I meditate on Your Word day and night.
I want to.
I know I need to.
But I don’t – not yet.
Part of the reason is I haven’t yet figured how that goal is practical.
How do I meditate on Scripture 24/7 while
talking
playing
reading
working
sleeping
applying myself to tasks and relationships that require my total focus?
The other reason I don’t meditate on Your law day and night
is that I’m not that holy.
There are times – even when my mind is free to think about whatever I like –
that I don’t want to meditate on Your truth.
That’s the real issue, isn’t it?
I’m still battling Satan and my own human depravity.
O God.
Change me.
