Lazaroo – Monday, September 7, 2009

Sep 07, 2009 I Lazaroo.

Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in holy fear:

“All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god.”
(Jonah 1:5)

When we’re afraid, we all have somebody – or something – we cry out to, don’t we, Jesus?

Some of us have You.

God.

Others of us don’t have You. All we have is

a god.

Some

person
place
or
thing.

When terror grips me, the god Satan tempts me to turn to could be a

friend
family member
coworker
hero
teacher
counselor
pastor

It might be

my home
workplace
school
a bar
the gym

It could be a

hobby
television
sport
movie
drink
food
drug

Some of those are good things.

Some are not.

But they all have one thing in common:

Every last one of them

is a lousy god.

You alone are God!

From now on

when I am afraid

I will turn to You.
