Lazaroo – Thursday, January 7, 2010

Jan 07, 2010 I Lazaroo.


Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with over-the-top trust:

“… in weakness they have fled before the pursuer.”
(Lamentations 1:6)

The New Year is barely one week old, Jesus

and already I have run headlong into my weakness.

I had set my course
I knew what I had to do
I had resolved to be strong

and in some areas I was.

But in this one area…

I wasn’t.

It’s hard not to be utterly disgusted with myself.
It’s hard not to give in to anger, frustration and despair.

It’s hard not to give up.

But I can’t!
I don’t dare!
There’s too much at stake!

So what do I do with me…

and this despicable weakness?

This.

I confess it.
I face the fact that apart from You

I am powerless.

Enter my weakness, O God!

Fill me with Your strength!

Do in me and through me and in spite of me

what only You can do.
