Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“So my heart began to despair over all my toilsome labor under the sun.”
(Ecclesiastes 2:20)

It’s easy to overvalue what I do, Jesus.

It seems important to me, or I wouldn’t do it.

But when I check back on the results

I’m stunned to see how little of my work actually matters.

Still, my one comfort is this:

You judge the intent of my heart.

If what I’m doing is truly for You

You transform it into eternal, heavenly treasure.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep gratitude:

“Next to them, repairs were made by men from Gibeon and Mizpah…”
(Nehemiah 3:7)

It feels good, Jesus…

to look over and see someone working as hard as I am
doing their share.

It’s encouraging even when I could have eventually finished it all myself

but it’s the difference between success and failure
when the task is bigger than either of us alone.

Thank You Father!

for every person You’ve sent – and will send –
to joyfully serve You together.
