Lazaroo – Sunday, January 10, 2010
Jan 10, 2010 I Lazaroo.
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with burning zeal:
“…I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share…”
(Jude 1:3)
Some people don’t feel this way, Jesus.
They treat their salvation like, “been there, done that.”
To them, it’s little more than
Christianity 101
entry-level spirituality
something belonging to the past
a short prayer they prayed long ago.
But this man Jude was eager to write about his salvation.
It wasn’t old hat to him.
It still blew his mind.
Like it does mine.
Of all the people who live on this planet
why in the world did You reach so far down
and put Your “Yes!”
in the likes of me?
Every time I contemplate that question
I come up empty.
Most of the people in the world are going to miss heaven.
Why do I get to go?
I understand why I chose You
But why
why!
did You choose me?
