Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“If you show special attention to the man wearing fine clothes…”
(James 2:3)

It’s hard not to, Jesus!

People who dress well catch the eye.
Often they’re educated, hardworking, interesting.

But You despise favoritism!

You made everyone I see.

When I fawn on one and ignore the other

I insult You.

Fact is, some of those able to dress to the nines

are shallow, self-centered, boorish.

I’d do well to treat everyone the same:

with love, consideration and respect.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…a poor man in shabby clothes…comes in.”
(James 2:2)

It’s a test, isn’t it, Jesus?

What’s my first thought?
What’s the expression on my face?
What do I say?
What do I do?

I don’t have to ask.

You want me to treat him with love, respect, dignity.

Don’t ever, ever, ever allow me to look down on anyone!

You made each and every soul I will ever see.
Help me think, feel, speak and act like it.

Pray this Lazaroo in eager expectation:

“The LORD…raises the poor from the dust…”
(1 Samuel 2:7-8)

That’s one of the things about You I like best, Jesus –

You don’t leave any of us where we are.

Those who are humbled You lift.
Those who are haughty You humble.

Of this I can be sure:

Whatever I do now
Whoever I am now

is going to change.

The more fully I surrender to You

the more stunning the end result.

One touch from You

is transformative.
