Pray this Lazaroo in sober reflection:

“Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.”
(James 3:1)

There’s a simple reason for this, isn’t there, Jesus?

Those to whom You give the holy honor of teaching Your Word

owe You and those they teach

the privilege of seeing someone
who practices what they teach.

True, no teacher will ever do everything perfectly

but that had blessed well be their daily goal.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…he was afraid to go there.”
(Matthew 2:22)

You haven’t given me a spirit of fear, Jesus –

but a spirit of power, love, self-discipline.

There’s no place You send me

that I need fear.

But there are places You forbid me to go.

I’d blessed well better be scared to go there!

How can I expect You to protect me

when I blatantly disobey?

Lead me in Your way everlasting, Father!

And keep my britches
out of the ditches.
