Pray this Lazaroo with compassion:

“…not to put it too severely.”
(2 Corinthians 2:5)

That’s a decent goal, Jesus.

Even when someone has a rebuke coming
there’s no point in overdoing it.

When they’re already down, busted and bleeding
why pile on?

Whether they admit it or not, they usually know they’ve blown it.

It doesn’t help when I make them feel worse
than they already do.

Besides, You’ve warned me:

What goes around, comes around.

Severe criticism is a seed

I’d rather not reap.
