Breakthrough Workouts

We all long for breakthroughs in life. An advance in our times, a push with a little more endurance, or even getting a pop in your step. They seem to not happen often so when they come you need to recognize them and use the fuel for encouragement.

These breakthroughs do not just happen. We have to work for them. They actually are heading your way when you get out of bed a little early to get in your run. They creep your way with every core workout. They sneak up on you while you are running intervals. You are your breakthrough and earn every step of it.

Spiritually speaking breakthroughs come through these same daily disciplines. The verses you memorize that give your strength. The prayers you offer the Lord bring you faith. Even the conversations you are able to have with others about the Lord lead you to them.

Breakthroughs erupt out of seemingly no where. Healing, helping, and making a difference for the kingdom of God. Even walking into church you too can see the Lord's power flow through you. Peter and John gave more than a hand out to a lame beggar one day. They gave a breakthrough and he received it.

And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, 

and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

 So he, leaping up, stood and walked 

and entered the temple with them-

walking, leaping, and praising God. Acts 3:7-8  

Today: 2 miles, sprint hills x15, stair work - push ups and go ups - x10, Core, and stretch. Wow felt like we could have gone further!!
