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.

 Pray this Lazaroo in trusting contentment: 

“…they saw that I had been entrusted with the task of preaching the gospel to the Gentiles, just as Peter had been to the Jews.”
(Galatians 2:7)

What a fulfilling moment, Jesus…

to finally recognize why You’ve put me on this earth

and at the same time

to be able to celebrate the fact that someone else
has a different mission.

So many mistakenly attempt to clone the mission of someone they view as successful

and risk missing out on the calling You’ve given to them.
