Pray this Lazaroo in stark realization:

“But someone will say, ‘You have faith; I have deeds.’ Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.”
(James 2:18-19)

My faith and my actions.

They’re not separate, are they, Jesus?

If I have faith
my life will show it.

If I don’t have faith
my life will show it.

My actions reveal whether or not I truly believe

in You.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…it is defiled…”
(Micah 2:10)

Someone or something starts out fine, Jesus

and then it’s defiled.

A word or action displeasing to You is all it takes

for it to be defiled.

You give me specific instructions about life

that You intend for me to follow.

When I don’t do it the way You prescribe

I defile the very thing You’ve provided to be a blessing.

How foolish.
What a waste!

May I never, ever defile one of Your gifts!

Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“You have plotted the ruin of many peoples…”
(Habakkuk 2:10)

Sounds like a serial killer, Jesus –

a murderer of happiness, peace, accomplishment, dreams.

This is someone who walks all over people

and enjoys doing it.

It’s all about them.
Never about others.

To them, people are pieces on a chessboard –

to be moved, then discarded.

Most of us have seen someone like that.

Some of us have been bulldozed by someone like that.

May I never be someone like that!
