Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in steadfast confidence: 

“Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old one, which you have had since the beginning.”
(1 John 2:7)

Those can be the hardest commands of all to obey, Jesus –

the ones I’ve had from the beginning.

I tend to take them for granted

get tempted to upgrade to something with a little more wiggle room.

“Besides,” says this familiar voice in my ear, “they’re outdated.

“Nobody lives like that anymore.”

That’s a lie, of course.

Though the majority may not follow Your ancient commands

millions do.

Count me in.
I’m still one of them.
