Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…encourage the young men to be self-controlled.”
(Titus 2:6)

Of course, all of us need to be self-controlled, Jesus

not just young men

but also young women, older women, older men.

Perhaps that’s because it’s harder for a young man to learn…

not to mention so very important.

I love the word, “encourage,” though!

Not simply a gruff command

but using words that explain
offer helpful examples
give incentive
inspire hope

letting these young men know:

They can do this!

…and so can I.

Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“…the older women…can train the younger women…to be subject to their husbands…”
(Titus 2:3-5)

In this day and age

that’s going to take a heap of training, Jesus.

Nobody wants to be subject to anybody.

Our sinful human nature demands:

“Do what you want to do
when and how you want to do it!”

But let me reply with this:

I submit myself totally, wholeheartedly, unreservedly to You, Father!

So whatever You ask me to do

my answer is an immediate, resounding

“YES!”

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“…the older women…can train the younger women…to be kind…”
(Titus 2:3-5)

Why would older women know more than younger women, Jesus

about being kind?

Perhaps the experience of their years has taught them its benefits.

Perhaps they’ve learned the hard way what happens

when they aren’t kind

and when others are unkind to them.

But of all instructional methods

perhaps the best way to train these younger women to be kind

is to show them how it’s done. 😉

Pray this Lazaroo with obedient diligence:

“…the older women…can train the younger women…to be…busy at home…”
(Titus 2:3-5)

Of course, these older women can only train the younger women to be busy at home, Jesus

if they, too, are busy at home.

Training isn’t merely about talking.

It involves showing how it’s done.
There’s nothing like a good example!

Nor is this principle for women alone.

It’s for men, too!

Yes, homes are for relaxation and rest…

but they also require a lot of work.
