Pray this Lazaroo with no excuses obedience:

“But you have insulted the poor.”
(James 2:6)

Not a good idea, is it, Jesus?

If I insult the poor
I’ve insulted You, their Maker.

It’s easy for me to judge – without truly knowing – how a person became poor

then conclude they’re unworthy of my help.

But You didn’t command me to be kind

only to those who don’t deserve their poverty.

I’m to recognize that if You’ve put something in my hand

I’d better be willing to share it.

Pray this Lazaroo with humility:

“…who share in the heavenly calling…”
(Hebrews 3:1)

I’m not the only one going to heaven, Jesus.

Now, of course, I know that.

But I don’t always act like it.

Sometimes I look down on others.

I know.
You repeatedly warn me not to.

When I catch myself committing that inexcusable sin

I’m horrified.

Who do I think I am?

I get distracted by the sins they’re committing
the foolish things they’re doing

and forget that I’ve done far worse.

Be willing to accept Godly correction, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“These men are not drunk, as you suppose.”
(Acts 2:15)

It’s so easy to judge people, Jesus.

I know better.
But I still do it.

Why?

I don’t believe in it.
I hate it – and for a very good reason:

Others have harshly judged me.

Of all people, I know how much it hurts.

I don’t know what they’ve gone through.
I don’t know how badly they’re hurting right now.

Please!
Help me rid my mind of this evil.
