Step up to the plate as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…on behalf of the Israelites.”
(Numbers 3:38)

Anything I do “on behalf” of someone else can be nerve-racking, Jesus!

It’s not just about me.
It’s about them.

To think that what I do on their behalf affects them – negatively or positively –

creates a lot of pressure.

I’m tempted to avoid the stress and reject such duties

until I realize that’s impossible.
Everything I do affects somebody else.

As Your follower, I’m always setting an example

for good
or harm.

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

“So if you consider me a partner…”
(Philemon 1:17)

That phrase sets me up, Jesus

just as Paul used it with Philemon, Apphia, Archippus
and the church that met in their home

to urge them to show forgiveness and Christian compassion
toward their runaway slave Onesimus.

But not everyone who employs that phrase uses it for good!

Protect me from being set up by those who call me “partner”
except for those who are true partners

with You.
