Pray this Lazaroo in simple, profound trust:

“Why, Lord, do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble? In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises. He boasts about the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the Lord.”
(Psalm 10:1-3)

In a heartbeat, Jesus

You could stop every evil person
from saying or doing anything wrong.

which would make us all nothing more than robots.

Instead, You’ve chosen to give us the freedom to choose You

or reject You.

Be forewarned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“They have become filled with every kind of…greed…”
(Romans 1:29)

So how many kinds of greed are there, Jesus?

There’s the kind that wants more than my share
out of fear that the day may come when I won’t have enough.

There’s the kind that takes what belongs to others
because I want to have more than them.

There’s the kind that piles it up
because having that much makes me feel more important

than I really am.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…he is as greedy as the grave….”
(Habakkuk 2:5)

That’s a heap of greedy, Jesus!

Last time I checked
47,000 people die every day.

Am I that greedy?

No.
Not if I know my own heart.
Not even close.

But how does anyone become “as greedy as the grave?”

My guess is it starts with a little greed
and grows.

Do I have even a little greed?

If so, show me.
Help me stop it in its tracks.
Now.
