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

“Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them, not to talk back to them, and not to steal from them, but to show that they can be fully trusted…”
(Titus 2:9-10)

I’m Your slave, Jesus!

I desperately want to show you and others
that I’m trustworthy.

But my problem is that sometimes

I haven’t been.

I need Your help to become everything You’ve created me to be!

Please give me another chance.

Pray this Lazaroo…thoughtfully:

“We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.”
(James 3:2)

Of the many ways I can sin, Jesus

it’s most likely to happen
when I open my mouth.

That makes me want to keep my mouth shut.

But the problem with that solution is this:

If I only think it,
it’s still a sin.

No one else may know it
but You do

because You read minds.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed faithfulness:

“If a liar and deceiver comes and says, ‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’ that would be just the prophet for this people!”
(Micah 2:11)

We’ve got a problem, Jesus.

We tend to listen to people who tell us what we want to hear
rather than people who faithfully listen to You
and tell us what we need to hear.

I don’t want to be that person!

May I heed only what comes from You!

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…the lust of the flesh…”
(1 John 2:16)

Well, Jesus…

this is a big problem I know something about.

There are things my body wants to do
more than You want me to do them.

There are things my body wants to do
before or after You want me to do them.

There are things my body wants to do
that You don’t want me to do at all.

Conclusion?

I’d better listen to You
instead of my body.
