Breaktrhough 2015-5 Things to Remember

When you're seeking a supernatural breakthrough, usually all hell will break loose around you. You will be attacked in all areas of your life and people will do things to you that you never imagined. It's in these times you need to remember these 5 things to help get you through to breakthrough.

-What others say and do, and the opinions they have, are based entirely on their own self-reflection.
Don’t take other people’s negativity personally.  Most negative people behave negatively not just to you, but to everyone they interact with.  What they say and do is a projection of their own reality.  Even when a situation seems personal, even if someone insults you directly, it oftentimes has nothing to do with you but reflects the inadequacies of that individual . 

-True happiness is found when you stop comparing yourself to everyone else and what they want. 
Stop living for other people and their opinions.  Be true to yourself.  You are the only person God has placed in charge of your life.  The only question is: What do you want to do with the rest of it-Please others or please God? Sometimes they are both not the same.

-Your goal shouldn’t be to create a perfect life, but to live in an imperfect world with radical faith. 
To get up every morning and take a good look around in a way that takes nothing for granted.  Everything is extraordinary.  Every day is a gift.  Never treat life casually.  To be spiritual in any way is to be amazed in every way.  Breakthrough comes to those who are thankful for the life God has already given them.

-Expecting life to be wonderful all the time is like wanting to swim in an ocean in which waves only rise up and never come crashing down.
When you recognize that the rising and crashing waves are part of the exact same ocean, you are able to let go and be at peace with the reality of these ups and downs.  It becomes clear that life’s ups require life’s downs. Breakthrough could come when you're on the mountain or when you're down in the valley. It's clear we will truly face base in this life.

-Happiness doesn’t come as a result of getting something we don’t have, but of appreciating everything we do have. 
Stress thrives when your worry list is longer than your gratitude list.  Happiness thrives when your gratitude list is longer than your worry list.  So find something to be thankful for right now and grab hold of it. IT might be the key you need to open the door of breakthrough.
