Bless The Interruptions
January 9, 2012
If your life is anything like mine, its pretty well planned out. I have a calendar that reminds me of appointments, meetings, and other to-do items. Inevitably, interruptions change my day dramatically; and while they can be frustrating, they also can be productive.
Some of the great advances in Gods plans have come through interruptions to the normal routine. Take Mary, for example. An angel interrupted her life with the announcement that she would have a son named Jesus. Since she was a virgin and engaged to be married, this news was undoubtedly shocking and deeply troubling (Luke 1:26-31). And Saul, the Jewish zealot who persecuted early Christians, was on his way to Damascus to arrest more followers of the Way when he was blinded by Jesus Himself (Acts 9:1-9). This life-changing interruption had huge implications for the future of Christianity.
The psalmist reminds us that the Lord can make the plans of the peoples of no effect (Ps. 33:10). Yet all too often we respond to the interruptions of our well-ordered lives with attitudes like frustration, irritation, fear, and doubt. Gods surprises in our day are full of opportunities. Lets welcome them as a new to-do list from Him.
Lord, if Im feeling rushed today,
I need Your eyes to help me see
That when an interruption comes,
It is an opportunity. Sper
Look for Gods purpose in your next interruption.
Read: Psalm 33:10-15
The
Lord . . . makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever.
Psalm 33:10-11

Good Morning Mayor...
Thank you for your faithful posting of ODB...
I'm reading it, along with Oswald Chambers
My Utmost for His Highest, as the two key devotionals to add to my Scripture reading this year, and I always know where to find it!
Right here on " Amy's Road"!
Have a great day! Polly
