Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures are being tamed and have been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.”
(James 3:7-8)

That explains a lot, Jesus.

I can’t control what someone else says.

Only You have that power.
Only You can make them speak up

or shut up.

I can’t even control what I say

without Your help.

I need help.

Pray this Lazaroo with eyes-open humility:

“…in my absence…”
(Philippians 1:27)

An awful lot happens in my absence, Jesus.

Ha! Almost everything does!
Much of it good…much not.

Either way, it’s humbling –

to witness how many wonderful things take place
without my help

to learn how many horrible things occur
behind my back.

In my own strength

I don’t have the power to make anything happen, do I?
nor can I prevent the bad from taking place.

Only You, LORD, only You.

Only You.
