Pray this Lazaroo with renewed resolve:

“I have become its servant by the commission God gave me…”
(Colossians 1:25)

You’ve also given me a commission, Jesus!

I’m supposed to share Your good news
with those who don’t yet know You.

I like what everybody thinks St. Francis of Assisi had to say about that:

Preach the gospel at all times.
If necessary, use words.

Of course, Francis didn’t say that – but still, it reminds me:

My words have power
only if backed up by my life.

Pray this Lazaroo with catalytic dedication:

“We ought therefore…”
(3 John 1:8)

Three powerful words, Jesus!

How many times have You shown me truth
without seeing me act on it?

I hope none.
But I know better.

Sometimes I file it away to act on later
and never get around to doing so.

Not only that.

But that word “we” is meant to turn me into an evangelist.

The truth You so graciously share with me
is meant for everyone to act on, as well.
