Pray this Lazaroo with wiser eyes:

“…all toil and all achievement spring from one person’s envy of another. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind. Fools fold their hands and ruin themselves. Better one handful with tranquillity than two handfuls with toil and chasing after the wind.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:4-6)

So there’s a balance, isn’t there, Jesus?

Work to accomplish what You’ve called me to do
not to keep up with someone else.

But even so, You want me to work –
and not make others do my job.

Pray this Lazaroo in obedient belief:

“Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.”
(Proverbs 3:7-8)

When we achieve something, there’s an inherent danger, isn’t there, Jesus?

that we will think our own cleverness brought it about
instead of You.

May we be terrified by those evil thoughts –

instantly shutting them down.

Not only will we do what’s right spiritually…

but Your physical blessings will be ours!
