Take a little comfort, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. The Pharisees said to him, ‘Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?’”
(Mark 2:23-24)

If they criticized Your followers then, Jesus…

why am I surprised –

while I’m faithfully walking with You –

when they criticize me?

Please don’t let their harsh words upset me.

After all, taking heat for You
is a badge of honor!

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“They…came to Joshua…and told him everything that had happened to them.”
(Joshua 2:23)

Joshua was eager to hear their report, Jesus!

After all, he had sent them to spy out the land.

But there aren’t many people in my life eager to hear

everything that’s happened to me.

They might not mind hearing the highlights

but the more detailed I become
the more their minds wander.

It takes a real friend

to genuinely want to hear the whole story.

Pray this Lazaroo in unexpected gratitude:

“I have found a man among the exiles…”
(Daniel 2:25)

That’s not where most people would look for top leadership, Jesus.

Exiles can be surly, ill-tempered, out-of-sorts.
They can have a chip on their shoulders.

After all, they were forcibly removed from their homeland.
Besides, how smart can they be…if they couldn’t escape?

But You delight in using people others disrespect!

When I’m choosing a leader

May I care more about the quality of person
than where they came from.
