Pray this Lazaroo in sobered assessment:

“I had confidence in all of you…”
(2 Corinthians 2:3)

That’s quite a statement, Jesus.

The larger the number of people it refers to
the harder it is to make.

It’s one thing to have confidence in a single person I know well

quite another to believe in every member of a large group.

Paul knew he had taught them well…

but I’m both a witness and an example:

Good teaching cannot guarantee
that everyone listening will follow it.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser focus:

“But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.”
(James 1:25)

So let me get this straight, Jesus:

If I intend to experience sweet success
I dare not read my Bible aimlessly.

Instead, You want me to read it with singleness of purpose –
to discover exactly how You want me to live

then live it.

 Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal: 

“Therefore, as it is written…”
(1 Corinthians 1:31)

That settles it for me, Jesus!

If it’s in Your Word
I’m doing it.

Period.

Of course I should attempt to understand why!

You love explaining things to me.
I love figuring them out.

(Although I wonder how many things I’ve “figured out”
are a total miss.)

Which acknowledges the elephant in the room:

I want to faithfully obey Your Word
but first I have to understand it.

O Holy Spirit…

help me!
