Lazaroo – Friday, May 13, 2011

May 13, 2011 I Lazaroo.

 

Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in dumfounded amazement:

“I am obligated both to Greeks and non-Greeks, both to the wise and the foolish.”
(Romans 1:14)

What a stunning insight, Jesus!

Everybody matters.
Everything matters.

You stoop down to make me great

and You use absolutely every shred
of every aspect of my life
to make that happen.

Every good person who has influenced my life

has been a gift from You.

But not only that!

You are even now transforming and reshaping into pure gold
all the terrible things every evil person has ever done to me.

It’s all grist for Your mill

the good
the bad
the ugly.

There’s no decision I can reach
no move I can make

that You cannot and will not orchestrate for my good
for the advancement of Your kingdom on earth
for the realization of Your purposes throughout eternity.

Knowing that makes me feel unimaginably small

and inconceivably important.
