Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: ‘Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.’ Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because ‘the righteous will live by faith.’”
(Galatians 3:10-11)

I keep trying to do good, Jesus

and so I should.

But not to earn my salvation!

I give my all to please You
In gratitude for your gift of faith.

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

“In everything set them an example by doing what is good…so that those who oppose you may be ashamed…”
(Titus 2:7-8)

So that‘s what does it, Jesus?

Just living the life You’ve called me to live
leaving my reputation to You?

I can do that.

Correction: With Your help, I can do that.

My tendency is to try to fix what others think of me.
But every time I try, I only end up looking worse.

Best leave that to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in wholehearted determination:

“Listen, my sons, to a father’s instruction; pay attention and gain understanding. I give you sound learning, so do not forsake my teaching.”
(Proverbs 4:1-2)

That’s the prayer of every Godly parent, Jesus!

But do the children listen?
Do they take it to heart?

Do they remember it?
Do they put it into practice?

No parent can make a child respond to their hard-earned wisdom, no matter how hard they try.

But as Your child

that’s exactly what I’m determined to do.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then Solomon began to build…”
(2 Chronicles 3:1)

I’ve begun a few things myself, Jesus

though I haven’t always finished.

It’s painful to start something, full of hope and promise

only to run into an obstacle
I’m not willing to pay the price to overcome.

That kind of shame and embarrassment

tempts me to not start anything
so I’ll never fail.

But that’s not true, is it?

The one failure bigger than failing to finish
is failing to try.
