Silence
1. Put on your “brakes” and stop for a moment of silence
2. Wait for God. Breathe deep for God's peace and feel His presence. Exhale your worries.
Praise and Thanksgiving
1. Think through your day, all the times that made you smile
2. Thank God for all those moments, and for all those people
"Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for dying on the cross for our sins and being victorious over death and sin. I confess my sin to you(pause, to tell Jesus what the Holy Spirit has shown you). Forgive my sins by your blood and help me follow you. Holy Spirit, fill me that I may be able to receive your gift to love God and His people. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen."
Confession and Repentance (Subjective Shifting Devotion Method http://bishopsilas.blogspot.ca/2009/08/count-down-5-subject-shifting-devotion.html)
1. Pray for the Holy Spirit to work in you:
“Dear Holy Spirit, shine your light into the places of darkness in my life. Show me my sins, everything that blocks me from encountering God. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”
“Dear Holy Spirit, shine your light into the places of darkness in my life. Show me my sins, everything that blocks me from encountering God. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”
2. Through the Holy Spirit, examine yourself for a short silence and then pray:
"Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for dying on the cross for our sins and being victorious over death and sin. I confess my sin to you(pause, to tell Jesus what the Holy Spirit has shown you). Forgive my sins by your blood and help me follow you. Holy Spirit, fill me that I may be able to receive your gift to love God and His people. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen."

Let's have a time to be still and give the Holy Spirit space to speak through the passage we have just read. Offer this time up to Jesus as you listen to him, while listening to "Gabriel's Oboe"
My Listening
Today's Psalm gives us a scary picture of being chased by enemies in the fear of being killed with no way out!
The wonderful message is that the other three passages give us another picture of security and successful in all things. How? It's very simple.
Take refuge in God, don't rely on your own wisdom but to listen and obey to God's lead. Yes, He will surely show you the right way, the successful way.
Don't be a smartass!
Dear Lord Jesus,
2. How can you repent and be willing to follow Jesus to show you the way?

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us not to rely on our own wisdom but to take refuge in you leading us to a successful journey. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
1. Do you have this kind of problem being a smartass?2. How can you repent and be willing to follow Jesus to show you the way?
3. What have you got from Jesus today?
