¨The head doesn't swell as long as the eyes are leaking.¨

I am listening to a message from last year by Mikael Alfv'en and this was the title of his message, and it speaks heaps. Our eyes are leaking when we are humbled and sometimes humiliated. They leak when we are before God in prayer. Tears when His mercy overwhelms us and we realize our own 'filthy clothes'.
Our eyes are often leaking when we minister to those in need, the broken, the hungry, the outcasts, those whom nobody wants to touch.
Interact is challenging the churches to take responsibility to pray for Sweden during this year 2010-2011. I believe many eyes will start to leak. And the humility that comes with 'leaking eyes' will break the pride that keeps our nation away from God.
It is a good timing for Sidney (Worapong Jariyapruttipong) to come to Sweden in August. I believe that the challenge he has for Europe, to fast and pray for breakthrough will cause our 'leaking eyes' to make a river. There might be many methods for revival. This is the ancient one and a proven one.
