Lover of Interruptions



Lately I find myself anticipating God’s interruptions because they bring great delight to my soul. The only way I can describe this feeling is being like a 5-year-old girl who is waiting for her daddy to come home from work with her favorite ice cream. It doesn’t matter what the young girl is doing when her father finally arrives because she will run to the door to give him a great big bear hug. Then she will proceed to ask him for her ice cream of course, but that time spent with him as they enjoyed their ice cream and laughed uncontrollably will encourage her to dream about her daddy’s next surprise arrival.

I love it when He shows up in unexpected ways. A few weeks ago He showed Himself in the form of a little tribal boy. I was rushing to get back to the van because my team and I were getting ready to leave the tribal area when the little boy approached me. He was so cute and the van leaving me wasn’t as important as stopping to spend time with him. I spent a few minutes with him and gave him an orange before I left. In the natural, nothing extraordinary happened but my heart was full of joy because I was blessed by a heavenly scheduled interruption.
