Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Do nothing out of selfish ambition…”
(Philippians 2:3)

That’s a tall order, Jesus!

Oh, not because I don’t agree.
But because selfish ambition is so hard to recognize.

Oh, not all that hard to recognize in others.
But devilishly hard to recognize in myself.

I used the right word, didn’t I?

Selfish ambition comes straight from the pits of hell.

O God!

Forgive me for every self-centered thought and act!

Purify my ambition!
May I desire Your will

and Your will alone.
