Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart…”
(Colossians 2:2)

What an awesome goal, Jesus!

That’s who I long to be to those around me:

an encouragement.

But it’s not merely saying a nice word or two, is it?

It’s encouraging people’s hearts

letting them know I truly care about them
being there for them when they’re down

telling them the truth they need to hear
in a way that gives them direction and hope.

Because that’s the kind of encouragement I need!

 Plan with humility as you pray this Lazaroo: 

“I wrote as I did so that when I came I should not be distressed…”
(2 Corinthians 2:3)

Sometimes that helps, Jesus.

Sometimes I can fix things from afar
prepare the way without being there.

When it works, it’s a real time-saver.

But there are times when I have to leave where I am

and go where they are.

Long distance has its benefits

and its limitations.

But which to use when?

Oh, how I need Your wisdom, Father!
Every day.
