Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with an awareness of whose you are:

“Therefore I will take away my grain when it ripens, and my new wine when it is ready.”
(Hosea 2:9)

We forget, don’t we, Jesus?

Wait a minute. Let me start over:

I forget.

I forget that it’s Your grain, Your new wine –

Your car
Your house
Your children
Your business
Your relationship
Your schedule
Your Church
Your world
Your body
Your life

not mine.

Everything I use, have or borrow

is Yours.

All my friends, family, neighbors, associates

belong to You.

Nothing in my life is mine to keep –

including life itself.

The only things that are truly mine
the only possessions I will ever be able to keep

are what I manage to upload from this earth
and store with You.

Every investment of

time
talent
treasure

I make in You and Your people

is right now –
and increasingly will be –

waiting for me in heaven.
