Pray this Lazaroo with clear-eyed recognition:

“Are [the rich]…not the ones who are slandering the noble name of him to whom you belong?”
(James 2:6-7)

You hate it when I fawn on the rich, Jesus –

when I favor them over the poor.

It’s so easy to be so awed by a profane person’s apparent success

that I forget theirs is not an example worth following.

Of course, there are good rich people, too.

But may I honor them for their goodness

not for their wealth.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…a poor man in shabby clothes…comes in.”
(James 2:2)

It’s a test, isn’t it, Jesus?

What’s my first thought?
What’s the expression on my face?
What do I say?
What do I do?

I don’t have to ask.

You want me to treat him with love, respect, dignity.

Don’t ever, ever, ever allow me to look down on anyone!

You made each and every soul I will ever see.
Help me think, feel, speak and act like it.
