Pray this Lazaroo with acknowledged need:

“Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:9-10)

You’re making it very clear, Jesus:

We need each other.

I need other people in my life –

reliable people!

…and they need me.

So much for my solo act.

May I be the help to others

I need from them.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepened understanding:

“…the overseer is to be above reproach…”
(1 Timothy 3:2)

You’ve set the overseer bar awfully high, Jesus

and for good reason.

If the overseer stumbles or falls, it’s a domino effect:

A whole lot of people can get hurt.

That’s why Satan relentlessly and ferociously attacks the overseer –

along with their family, friends and ministries, isn’t it?

To be above reproach
doesn’t mean to be above attack.

During the time You walked this earth

constant attack

is exactly what Satan did to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning desire:

“Remember the height from which you have fallen!”
(Revelation 2:5)

That’s a hard command to obey, Jesus.

Absolutely brutal.

If fills me with guilt –

because I know I didn’t have to fall.

If only I had stayed consistent!

plugging away
determined
one step at a time

I’d be looking down on that height

instead of up at it.

Nothing I can about it now.
What’s done is done.

But that glance at where I once was
inspires me to go after it again.
