Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in humble obedience:

“He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.”
(Titus 1:9)

I’ve got to remember this, Jesus.

Help me, Holy Spirit!

Your message – Your good news

that all who place their faith in You alone for salvation
will receive eternal life –

has another purpose, as well:

to refute false teachers.

I would far rather all my duties involve

happy tasks
popular assignments
sunshiny skies dotted with rose-hued clouds.

But You’re searching for someone

willing to do Your heavy lifting

someone who will go to those leading others astray

have a tough conversation
take the required action

someone who thinks so much of Your reputation

that they are willing to endanger their own.

By Your grace

when You call

I will be that person.
