Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“They…hoard plunder and loot in their fortresses.”
(Amos 3:10)

At first glance, this has nothing to do with me, Jesus.

But on second look, it nails me between the eyes.

The key word is “hoard,” isn’t it?

Could that apply to the things I’ve acquired
that I haven’t used for a long time –

things I’m holding onto “in case” I might need them?
Things I should let go of and share with others

who need them right now?

Wow.
Ouch.

Wise up, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun, because I must leave them…”
(Ecclesiastes 2:18)

I can’t take it with me, Jesus.

Of course, I know that.
But sometimes I don’t act like it.

The more I love the things I’ve acquired

the harder it will be to leave them
when my time on this earth is through.

But knowing they will soon not be mine

might make me regard my treasures

with wiser perspective.
