Lazaroo – Thursday, May 5, 2011
May 05, 2011 I Lazaroo.
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in confident humility:
“The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law.”
(Mark 1:22)
You weren’t faking it, Jesus.
You taught them with authority
because all authority in heaven and earth is given to You.
When You showed them the way
it took them straight to their destination
because You Are the way.
Everything You taught them
was true to the bone
because You Are the truth.
When You offered them eternal life
Your offer was good
because You Are the life.
You knew it.
They knew it
whether they wanted to acknowledge it or not.
I, on the other hand am not
the way
the truth
the life.
I’m a dirty, rotten sinner
saved not by any good I have done
nor evil I’ve rejected
but solely by Your amazing grace.
My only authority
comes from You.
