Pray this Lazaroo in deeper understanding:

“Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry…”
(Genesis 4:3-5)

When You correct me, Jesus

may I never react defensively.

Help me respond with a humble, passionate desire

to please You in everything I think, say and do.

Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“…many…wept aloud…while many others shouted for joy.”
(Ezra 3:12)

Same event, Jesus:

the laying of the foundation of the second temple.

Some wept, remembering, overcome with emotion.

Others were so happy they shouted.

That’s who we are, isn’t it?

We react differently because of what’s inside us.

Fill me with Yourself, Holy Spirit!

Put everything inside me You want to be there!
Fill me up with Your holy Word!

So what comes out of me
will consistently glorify You.

Pray this Lazaroo in humility:

“When he is made aware of the sin he has committed…”
(Leviticus 4:28)

That’s a telling moment, isn’t it, Jesus?

What’s my response when I find out
I’ve unintentionally done something wrong?

Do I deny it and refuse to take responsibility?
Do I come up with every excuse I can think of?
Do I react with anger against the person who confronts me?

Or do I repent wholeheartedly
and do everything in my power to make it right?
