Think beyond the end of your nose, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with which they labor under the sun?”
(Ecclesiastes 2:22)

Wise question, Jesus!

Kinda what Solomon was known for.

The sad reality is this: 

A whole lot of what I do
isn’t going to amount to a hill of beans
ten years from now.

How foolish to spend myself for nothing!

Which makes me wonder:

What could I do
that would matter even more
ten thousand years from now?

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…it is defiled…”
(Micah 2:10)

Someone or something starts out fine, Jesus

and then it’s defiled.

A word or action displeasing to You is all it takes

for it to be defiled.

You give me specific instructions about life

that You intend for me to follow.

When I don’t do it the way You prescribe

I defile the very thing You’ve provided to be a blessing.

How foolish.
What a waste!

May I never, ever defile one of Your gifts!

Pray this Lazaroo with catalytic dedication:

“…your backsliding will rebuke you.”
(Jeremiah 2:19)

Has it ever, Jesus!

Has it ever.

When I truly visualize everything I’ve lost

I drop to my knees…then to my face…
in anguish.

How stupid! How foolish! How unimaginably dense, blind, shortsighted!

But I’d be wise not to spend any more time beating myself up.

I need every ounce of energy left in my body
to make certain from this moment forward

I stay in deep, daily, moment-by-moment
1on1 relationship with You.
