Pray this Lazaroo in humble awareness:

“…who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them?”
(1 Corinthians 2:11)

It upsets me, Jesus…

when somebody thinks they know what I’m thinking
or why I did what I did.

Most of the time, they’re wrong.

So why am I so quick to judge the motivations of others?

Am I judging them by what I would have done under their circumstances?

If so, then I’m judging myself.

Maybe if I stop sowing that seed

I’ll quit reaping it.

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

“Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
(Genesis 3:11)

Yes, I have, Jesus.

God help me!
Yes, I have.

As Adam did when You asked him this question

I’m tempted to explain why I did it.

But I’m not going to bother.

You’d recognize it for what it is:
An embarrassingly weak excuse.

I know what happened to Adam and Eve.

Please help me change!
Don’t kick me out of the garden.
