Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

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

Yes, they can, Jesus…

provided the older women are themselves self-controlled.

It’s somewhat difficult
to teach something you don’t do.

It’s also extremely helpful for younger women
to see self-control modeled day after day.

Of course, the other side of the equation

is that the younger women must be willing to be taught.

Self-control is hard!

They’ve got to passionately desire it
and be willing to pay the price.

Pray this Lazaroo with single minded determination:

“…if anyone competes as an athlete…”
(2 Timothy 2:5)

I can learn a lot from athletes, Jesus.

They do their best to discover their gifts
as You want me to do.

They work hard to develop those gifts
as You tell me to do.

They focus relentlessly on their goal
as You call me to do.

When they fall short, they get up and try again
as You enable me to do.
