Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“…children and infants faint in the streets of the city. They say to their mothers, ‘Where is bread and wine?’ as they faint like the wounded in the streets of the city, as their lives ebb away In their mothers’ arms.”
(Lamentations 2:11-12)

Oh, how painful to hear these words, Jesus!

The suffering of the children
because of the sins of their parents.

It’s not fair!

But it’s the price of sin.

We think our sins affect us alone

but we’re dead wrong.

Accept the honor, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…encourage the young men to be self-controlled. In everything set them an example by doing what is good…”
(Titus 2:6-7)

I can’t just tell them how to behave, can I, Jesus?

I’ve got to show them what it looks like.

Of course, it’s a whole lot easier to point the way
than to lead the way.

But that’s only fair.

Because it’s a lot harder for them to follow my advice
than to nod with an indulgent smile
pretending to agree.

Pray this Lazaroo in deep appreciation:

“…sufficient for him.”
(2 Corinthians 2:6)

Everything You do for me is sufficient, Jesus!

…not to mention unique.

What’s sufficient for me may not be for someone else.

Thank You for not giving me the one-size-fits-all treatment!

The way You reward me is different from what You do for everyone else.

So is the way You correct me.

But please help me remember that for others, it may be too much…too little…

…or need to be something else entirely.
