Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
(2 Corinthians 3:17)

Most nonbelievers think Christianity is a boatload of rules, Jesus.

They would be stunned to read this verse.

Frankly, so am I.

Oh, not because I don’t believe it.
I do!

But because I’ve not been fully living in the freedom
You so lovingly purchased for me by Your sacrifice on the cross.

Help me live moment-by-moment in Your Spirit
through the power of Your Word!

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“They are full of envy…”
(Romans 1:29)

Not a particularly good thing to be full of, Jesus.

It’ll eat me alive.

When I start comparing myself with others

jealous of what You’re doing for them
I lose perspective, can’t think straight.

“Why them and not me?” has a boatload of really good answers –

none of which I can come up with
while I’m caught in envy’s grasp.

Instead of envy, fill me with gratitude

for what You’re doing for me.
