Pray this Lazaroo in ardent love:

“May you be richly rewarded by the LORD…”
(Ruth 2:12)

None of us deserves anything, Jesus!

We’re all sinners, saved only by Your grace.
Our righteous deeds are as filthy rags.

We’ve come to You, believing
trusting in Your death, burial and resurrection

not because of our own goodness
but because You granted us the gift of faith
drawing us to Yourself.

So when You reward me for some good thing I’ve done

that’s nothing less than a stunning heavenly gift!

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…rid yourselves of all…envy…”
(1 Peter 2:1)

It’s the green-eyed monster, isn’t it, Jesus?

Wanting what somebody else has
until its acid eats away the “lining” of my spirit

robbing me of my joy
becoming an obsession
keeping me awake nights
turning me into something ugly and repulsive.

What’s the antidote?

Your contentment!

brought about by trusting in You
to supply everything I need

knowing You love me way too much
to withhold anything good that is truly best.
