Interruptible

Mark 5:21-43

Interruptions are inevitable. It’s just the way life works. For instance, the phone rings while your hands are full, your kids begin “needing” you right when you make an important phone call, or your boss calls you to come in on your day off. Are these interruptions just bad luck, or is it possible that God is in the details of these interruptions for your sake as well as others?

God wants us to be readyfor interruptions.

Jesusmade Himselfinterruptible.
