Pray this Lazaroo with passionate intent:

“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, ‘children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.’ Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life.”
(Philippians 2:14-16)

If I want to shine like a star in this darkened world, Jesus

I’ve got to stop my grumbling and arguing.

The only chance I have to do that

is to hold firmly to Your Word of life!

Pray this Lazaroo with undiluted sincerity:

“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, ‘children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.’”
(Philippians 2:14-15)

There’s a payoff for doing life Your way, Jesus!

There’s always a payoff.
A very good payoff.

It seldom happens when or how or where I imagined it would

but when it does, I’m blown away.

Still the greatest payoff of all for doing things Your way

is the certain knowledge that I’m putting a smile on Your face.

Let the Light dawn, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…whoever hates his brother…walks around in the darkness…”
(1 John 2:11)

It’s bad enough to hate my brother or sister in You, Jesus

and be stuck in the darkness.

But You’re telling me it doesn’t stop there, Holy Spirit.

You’re explaining that to hate one of Your children –

no matter how weak or obnoxious

is to try to navigate the darkness

without a light.

There’s a whole lot of stumbling, falling, disappointment and pain.

That certainly explains a lot.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Whoever loves his brother lives in the light…”
(1 John 2:10)

It’s not that loving one of Your children saves me, Jesus…

it’s that if I’m truly on my way to heaven
I’ll love my brothers and sisters in You

even those as deeply flawed
as am I.

With some, it’s easy.

With others, as with me,
it takes a heap of intent.

It helps to realize that more than a feeling.

love is treating others as You command.
