Pray this Lazaroo with a higher perspective:

“I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God.”
(Ecclesiastes 3:12-13)

Those are a gift from You, Jesus!

But not everyone gets to enjoy them.

Some of the best people You’ve created

experience a brutally hard life on this earth.

But because of their steadfast faithfulness to You

their forever is going to be oh, so sweet!

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“…the older women…can train the younger women…to be kind…”
(Titus 2:3-5)

Why would older women know more than younger women, Jesus

about being kind?

Perhaps the experience of their years has taught them its benefits.

Perhaps they’ve learned the hard way what happens

when they aren’t kind

and when others are unkind to them.

But of all instructional methods

perhaps the best way to train these younger women to be kind

is to show them how it’s done. 😉

Pray this Lazaroo in eye-opened understanding:

These are the nations the Lord left to test all those Israelites who had not experienced any of the wars in Canaan (he did this only to teach warfare to the descendants of the Israelites who had not had previous battle experience)…”
(Judges 3:1-2)

That answers a ton of questions, Jesus!

I want all my problems to go away.

You, however, want me to become a seasoned warrior.

In my preferred problem-free world

that’s not likely to happen.

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned gratitude:

“The LORD will…again choose…”
(Zechariah 2:12)

When I’ve done what I shouldn’t have, Jesus

sinning against You

when my sins have forced You to discipline me

bringing me pain, sorrow, suffering, excruciating regret

it can feel like You and I will never be close again
that I’ve forever lost the precious intimacy we had –

until, in repentance, I look up in happy, near disbelief

to realize You choose once again

to experience deep, daily, moment-by-moment

1on1 relationship with me.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful humility:

“…the older women…can train the younger women…”
(Titus 2:3-4)

That’s Your plan, isn’t it, Jesus?

You take us through so many things through the years

not only to teach us

but to help us acquire the knowledge to teach others.

Thank You for every older woman

who passes on the wonderful insights You’ve given –

large and small.

And thank You for every younger woman wise enough to listen

so that one day she too

can pass it on.

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“…teach the older women…”
(Titus 2:3)

Older women know a lot, Jesus.

They’ve seen a lot. Heard a lot. Felt a lot.

They’ve lived through historical events others have only read about.

They’ve experienced some of life’s best moments
and endured some of life’s worst.

They’re absolutely loaded with information, insights, secrets

to share with anyone who asks.

But they still need to be taught from Your Word

as does every person on earth
who still draws a breath.
