Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the firstfruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new wine.”
(Proverbs 3:9-10)

The key is that old-fashioned word, “firstfruits,” isn’t it, Jesus?

The first tomatoes that ripen
the first grapes that reach full color
the first figs to arrive at succulent readiness

Those are the hardest to part with…

and the most meaningful of all
to devote to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“The fig tree forms its early fruit…”
(Song of Songs 2:13)

So I guess that means there must be a late fruit too, Jesus

and an on-time fruit. 😉

But there has to be something special about the early fruit!

That first taste – so good and sweet
especially after a long time without.

Is that why You came up with the idea of a firstfruits offering?

For sure, You deserve it –
because all my “fruit” comes from You.
