Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“Now the overseer is to be above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not given to drunkenness, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.”
(1 Timothy 3:2-3)

Those are a lot of requirements, Jesus.

No wonder some people see them
and back away from pursuing this holy office.

But these are the bare minimums!

Isn’t this the holy life to which You’ve called
absolutely every one of us?

Seek Godly guidance, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves…”
(1 Timothy 2:9)

So You’re not against us looking good, Jesus!

That’s good to know. 😉

But You want us to do so circumspectly when in public, not suggestively.

You want us to dress appropriately for the occasion
to show some respectability, some class.

That doesn’t take a whole lot of money, does it?

When I decide what to wear each morning
may I lean on You, Holy Spirit!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“Here’s a good seat for you…”
(James 2:3)

There’s nothing wrong with offering somebody a good seat, Jesus

unless I’m doing so to favor the rich over the poor.

What is there in my makeup that causes me to automatically respect someone wearing fine clothes

and look down on someone dressed shabbily?

If I knew them as only You do

it’s possible that the poor person is the one who deserves my respect
and the rich one my contempt.
