Don't ask for a break, ask for a breakthrough.



You have experienced in daily events what it means to break through that school problem or that difficulty in repairing an appliance around the house. A breakthrough on earthly terms simply means that you stuck with it long enough to understand what you didn’t understand before, and the difficulty and dilemma disappears.
Spiritually speaking
, your whole life should be dedicated to, I would say at a minimum of ten breakthroughs per day. Now what does that mean? To make even one of them means freedom from your memorized self. Now, that’s what you have, you do not have a spiritual nature contrary to what vanity and imagination might tell you, you have a memorized nature and you act, express yourself, stumble, fall and cry from that nature. So, a breakthrough means a break-out, it means that a new world has become glimpsed by you in a small way. Vernon Linwood Howard

"All power is of God. What is not of Him has no power to do anything." ACIM Ch.11.V.3.6-7


Any individual, on the face of this earth, can be genuinely happy, genuinely healthy and a genuinely prosperous if he will do just one thing:
Switch his focal point of attention from “How much can I get out of life”, and develop a habitual concern about, “how much can I give.”
In other words,
“Any individual on the face of the earth can be happy, healthy and prosperous if he will seek an opportunity to serve where there is an unlimited opportunity to serve humanity.” Dr. J.B. Jones

"We win by losing, as when we lose self-centeredness and thus win freedom from self-anxiety." Vernon Linwood Howard

There is great harmony in your being. You are a faithful friend. The way you go is ordained for your training. You can have gold and friendships as tokens of Divine favor if you believe in this promise: “Thou shalt be far from oppression: for thou shall not fear.” ECH
