Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with sold-out desire:

“…our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power.”
(1 Thessalonians 1:5)

I’m tired of mere words, Jesus.

Mine and others’.

I’m tired of big promises

followed by tiny results.

I’m weary of thinking I have something

only to find out I’ve got nothing.

I’m sick to death of having my hopes raised in the soft glow of candlelight

only to have them dashed in the harsh, cold reality of morning’s light.

But the words that hurt more than all the rest put together

are Your words

unfulfilled.

Strengthen my weak knees.

Shore up my faltering faith.

Mend my shattered trust and

in Your way
in Your time
in Your glory

come in power!
