Pray this Lazaroo with humble understanding:

“Every high priest is selected from among the people and is appointed to represent the people in matters related to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and are going astray, since he himself is subject to weakness.”
(Hebrews 5:1-2)

Help me deal gently with the shortcomings of others, Jesus

since I, too, am subject to weakness.

May I deal with their issues

as tenderly as I want You to deal with mine.

Pray this Lazaroo in head-shaking amazement:

“Why have I found such favor in your eyes…?”
(Ruth 2:10)

How refreshing is that, Jesus?

In this day of people pounding their chests, swaggering –

I’m so used to hearing:

“It’s about time!”
“I’m the best there is!”
“Check me out!”

But here’s Ruth, so unassuming

that when someone does something nice for her
she’s stunned, not comprehending –

the exact opposite of an attitude of entitlement.

No wonder You selected her to become

one of Your many-times-removed great grandmothers.
