Pick up a tip as you pray this Lazaroo:
“You will do well…”
(3 John 1:6)
What a great way to give important advice, Jesus:
Preface it by saying:
“You will do well…”
Sure beats:
“You’d better…”
or, “You have to…”
or, “I’m telling you to…”
or, “I’m warning you…”
I’ve got to remember everybody wants to do well.
So when I offer advice –
especially the unsolicited kind –
cause me to remember and enable them to understand:
I’m only helping them do
what they already want to do.
