Lazaroo – Saturday, April 14, 2012

No comments, Apr 14, 2012

 

Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with a heart eager for life-change:

“But the woman had taken the two men and hidden them.”
(Joshua 2:4)

What a risk she took, Jesus.
If the king of Jericho had found out, he would have killed her on the spot.

The safe play was to be a good citizen and turn in the spies.

Why not?

She was living in a walled city that many believed was impenetrable.

Why would she throw in her lot with a band of homeless strangers who had been wandering in the desert 40 years?

These people were totally unlike anyone she knew.
They had radically different

beliefs
customs
values

and followed a God she had heard about only from a distance.

By contrast, everything she knew for certain was wrapped up in her old life.

Why was she willing to give it all up?

Maybe because, like I am –

she was sick and tired of her old life.
