Take a little comfort, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. The Pharisees said to him, ‘Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?’”
(Mark 2:23-24)

If they criticized Your followers then, Jesus…

why am I surprised –

while I’m faithfully walking with You –

when they criticize me?

Please don’t let their harsh words upset me.

After all, taking heat for You
is a badge of honor!

Pray this Lazaroo in honest self-assessment:

“These people are…faultfinders…”
(Jude 1:16)

Okay, Jesus –

When my job is quality control
I have to find and report every fault! 😉

But when it comes to my relationships with others?

What they need most from me is encouragement
not relentless criticism.

How often do Your people fall short because of discouragement –

especially when somebody comes along
and nitpicks them to death?

Why would I ever do that?

Maybe because I’d rather find fault in others
than in myself.
