Pray this Lazaroo with eyes wide open:

“Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom, because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment!”
(James 2:12-13)

There’s no getting around it, Jesus:

What I plant is what I’ll get.

If I behave kindly toward those who’ve hurt me

You’ll treat me better than I deserve.

If I get my revenge against them

You’ll punish me for my countless sins
in full measure.

Pray this Lazaroo in wholehearted passion:

“…in service to God…”
(Hebrews 2:17)

That’s what You did on earth, Jesus.

And that’s the example You’ve set for me to follow.

You are both God and Man.

But there was no getting around it:
As a man, You needed to serve God.

So do I.

I don’t have the perfect connection that You have
so from time to time I get my signals crossed.

But may I never – not for one moment! –

cease trying to serve You.
