Pray this Lazaroo in corrected gratitude:

“Of what value is an idol carved by a craftsman? Or an image that teaches lies? For the one who makes it trusts in his own creation; he makes idols that cannot speak.”
(Habakkuk 2:18)

I’ve never carved an idol, Jesus.

I would never do such a thing.

But am I trusting anything I’ve created?
Anything some other human has created?

Do I think they have the power to

heal me
make me happy
put food on my table?

I know better than that!

Only You, LORD!
Only You.

Pray this Lazaroo with full-on ardor:

“I will show my love…”
(Hosea 2:23)

If I have a loving emotion I don’t express, what good is it, Jesus?

You’ve taught me that love is action:

It’s patient and kind.
It doesn’t envy or boast.
It’s not proud.

It’s not rude, self-seeking or easily-angered.
It keeps no record of wrongs.
It rejoices in the truth, not in evil.

It always protects, trusts
hopes, perseveres.
Love never fails.

Please help me follow Your example

and show my love.
