Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“So if you consider me a partner…”
(Philemon 1:17)

That phrase sets me up, Jesus

just as Paul used it with Philemon, Apphia, Archippus
and the church that met in their home

to urge them to show forgiveness and Christian compassion
toward their runaway slave Onesimus.

But not everyone who employs that phrase uses it for good!

Protect me from being set up by those who call me “partner”
except for those who are true partners

with You.
