Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in humble adulation:

“Now to the King eternal, immortal…”
(1 Timothy 1:17)

This is awesome, Jesus:

Unlike me…

You’re immortal.

And yet…

You know what it’s like to be what I am:

mortal.

You came to this earth as a baby and tasted it all firsthand –
spent 33 years on this planet experiencing mortality.

I can’t imagine how difficult that was for You!

I’m used to these limitations.
You weren’t.

It’s one thing to never have been immortal –
I don’t have anything to miss!

Well, wait a minute.

This may sound crazy to other mortals, but I know I can say it to You:

I think I miss immortality after all.

There are moments when something powerful rises up within me and I sense that I was created for more than this.

Thanks to what You did for me on the cross

my date with immortality

is set.
