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
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 shine on you that you are able to discover your sins and be willing to repent:
“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."
The Word, Time with Abba (Psalm 106:1-5, Isaiah 39:1-41:16; Ephesians 1:1-23, Proverbs 23:25-28)

Today's main passage:
He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:29-31

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.
My Listening
The topic I received today is: Live out "Love is God, God is love"
How can we renew our strength when we are hopeless, depressed, weary and weak? There is only one answer, you got to wait for Jesus to come into your life again and then all those hopelessness, depression, tiresome and weakness will automatically disappear. Do you believe that?
This is exactly like what I shared yesterday in my blog about the renewal story of Blessing, the daughter Bishop Francis and Eva adopted. When she was willing to accept Jesus as her Saviour and Lord of life, her life renewal began.
But, she needed that three painful years of Francis and Eva's unconditional love that she experienced the love of her parents so as to experience the love of God! Then she came out of hopelessness, depression...to renewal in great strength and really soar on wings like eagle to become the best Counsellor of her city to bring blessings to many!
Are you willing to spend three years to raise up another "Blessing"?

This is my biggest experience in Rwanda the past week:
Love is God, God is love!
Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to live out "Love is God, God is love". In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
1. What kind of inspiration and invitation have you received from today's message ?
2. What is your next step to live out "Love is God, God is love"?
