Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Ask the former generation and find out what their ancestors learned, for we were born only yesterday and know nothing, and our days on earth are but a shadow. Will they not instruct you and tell you? Will they not bring forth words from their understanding?”
(Job 8:8-10)

What refreshing, humble words of wisdom, Jesus!

May I never be counted among the proud
who regard older saints with disdain

as though modern times
make their counsel irrelevant!

Technology changes.
People don’t.

The hard-won experience of the aged

is priceless.

Pray this Lazaroo with Scripture-infused emotion:

“Then I thought in my heart…”
(Ecclesiastes 2:15)

Thinking in my heart goes deeper

than thinking in my mind, doesn’t it, Jesus?

The thoughts that arise deep within my heart

often get there through painful means.

They’re lessons hard-learned
battles hard-won…

…and lost.

The thoughts in my heart are the real me, aren’t they, Holy Spirit?

May all the words of my mouth and meditations of my heart
be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
