Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Do not mortals have hard service on earth? Are not their days like those of hired laborers? Like a slave longing for the evening shadows, or a hired laborer waiting to be paid, so I have been allotted months of futility, and nights of misery have been assigned to me.”
(Job 7:1-3)

Job was telling the truth, Jesus.

That’s exactly how he felt.

He didn’t know it

but that wasn’t how his story would end.

You restored and blessed him with more than before!

No matter what I’m going through now

I trust the beautiful end You have in store for me!

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“…a chasing after the wind.”
(Ecclesiastes 2:17)

What a perfect picture of futility You’ve given me, Jesus.

Show me everywhere in my life I’m doing this.

Help me stop!

Did I say, “my” life?

God help me.

It’s not mine.
It’s Yours.

Forgetting that is what sets me off
on another wind-chasing waste of time.

Chasing after the wind is NOT going after something too big.

In Your power, there’s no such thing.

It’s failing to check with You first.
