Pray this Lazaroo with self-aware humility:

“…rid yourselves of…all…hypocrisy…”
(1 Peter 2:1)

I hate hypocrisy, Jesus.

And others hate it in me.

Oh, I don’t think I’m a hypocrite! Not at all…

until someone I love –
or someone I don’t love as much as I should –

points it out.

My first response? Denial.

“I’m no hypocrite!”

But then, Holy Spirit, comes Your inner voice:

“Actually, they’re right.
You don’t mean to be a hypocrite
but in this instance, you are.”

Denial stops.
Correction commences.

Take warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…they follow their own evil desires…”
(Jude 1:16)

Not at all worth following, Jesus!

If I’m following myself
I’m going in circles.

I’m looking in the mirror to get direction.
I’m answering my own questions.

I’m in a self-destructive loop
turning further and further inward
without hope of course correction.

I’m committing the ultimate sin:

making myself my god.

Until I look outside myself

I’m not going anywhere.

If I follow anyone but You

I’m going nowhere
worth going.
