Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in simple humility:

“The LORD God said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.’”
(Genesis 2:18)

No, it isn’t good for me to be alone, Jesus…

although sometimes I want to be.

Basically…people are a lot of trouble.

You may have noticed that.

Still, I admit it: I need a helper.

Adam needed a wife and You gave her to him –
straight out of his own body.

The first woman came out of man.
Every man since has come out of woman.

But I know not every helper is a spouse.

Sometimes the “suitable” spouse hasn’t shown up, yet.
Sometimes spouses become incapacitated…or die.

Besides, You haven’t called every person to be married.
For some people, spouses are more of a hindrance than a help.

What then?

I will turn to the one helper I can always count on:

You.
