Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with a sober heart:

“…the people feared the LORD.”
(Haggai 1:12)

Few people in my generation want to hear this, Jesus.

They want me to tell them

You’re their heavenly buddy
their best friend
the one who forgives all their sins
the God of the second chance
the lover of their souls
the Counselor who guides them flawlessly through life’s rough waters
the Rock who’s always there for them, no matter what

the God who loves them so much You laid down Your life to save them.

You’re all of that –

and so much more.

But that’s not the whole story.
That’s not all You are.

You’re not a God to be messed with.

The day I come to You in disrespect

demanding my rights
shrugging off my sins as though they don’t matter
acting like I deserve Your blessings

is the day before

I’ll learn firsthand why it’s wise

to fear You.
