Pray this Lazaroo in aware humility:

“The arrogance of man will be brought low and human pride humbled…”
(Isaiah 2:17)

Why do we get like that, Jesus?

It’s because of the generosity of Your blessings, isn’t it?

You load us up with good things

but instead of being humbly grateful to You
we act like we’ve done it ourselves.

Attractive people act like they self-designed their genes.
Talented people act like they gave themselves their abilities.

No wonder You have to take us down a notch!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Give careful thought: Is there yet any seed left in the barn?”
(Haggai 2:18-19)

Great question, Jesus!

Way too often, we ignore the reason for our circumstances.

We act like stuff happens randomly, on its own.

But it doesn’t!

You’re the One who monitors every bird that falls

and numbers the hairs on my head.

If things are going great for me – You’re the One making it happen!

Ditto, if I’m in hot water:

You’re the One turning up the heat.

Pray this Lazaroo with full-on caution:

“In their greed…”
(2 Peter 2:3)

People do a lot of shameful things, Jesus…

in their greed.

What is there about me that wants more than I need?

Why do I sometimes fail to consider that what I take for myself
could rob someone else of what they require?

But that raises the bigger question, doesn’t it?

Why do I act like it’s all about me?
Where do I get off behaving with this detestable attitude of –

“Me first?”
