Own it…as you pray aloud the words of this Lazaroo:

“My sins have been bound into a yoke; by his hands they were woven together. They have come upon my neck and the Lord has sapped my strength.”
(Lamentations 1:14)

How dare he talk like that about You, Jesus?!

He may be Your chosen prophet
but why did You let him get away with such a statement?

I guess…because it’s true.

You warn me that’s what my sins will do to me –

limit my options
steal my freedom
make me a slave to others.

So I guess I shouldn’t be surprised when You do what You promised.

Except I am.

I prefer to think of it as Satan’s attack
or as others punishing me.

I would much rather think I did it to myself.

I don’t want to admit You’re the one who’s taking me to the woodshed.

That’s painfully personal

and obviously, sometimes…

necessary.
