DISRUPTIONS

Do you have your day planned out? Maybe your week and month too? It is good to make plans and schedules, but sometimes we find our plans disrupted. Maybe it is a long line at the grocery store or a friend calling for a favor that you don’t have time for. One day mine was a dead car battery. Well, not mine but my neighbor’s and I felt convicted that I should stop and help as I was backing out of my driveway. I didn’t want to stop and help, but I did. The short of the story is this disruption in my day gave me the opportunity to spend time with a neighbor whose dad had just passed away. As a result of the time together, I was given the privilege of performing the memorial service for my neighbor and pointing a hurting family to the love and hope found in Jesus! I had a plan for my day, but the Lord had a different plan. He disrupted my plan with something better! Consider this when you feel like your plans are disrupted. God’s plan is at work!
