The Disguise of Interruption

I was reading Mark Buchanan's book "The Rest of God". He mentions that Jesus often appears to us in the "disguise of interruption". When we are busy in our daily activities He appears to us through various circumstances that attempt to pull us out of our routine.

Isn't that the point of the story of the Good Samaritan - ministry was found in the interruption.

Henri Nouwen summed up well when he said, "My whole life I have been complaining that my work was constantly being interrupted, until I discovered the interruptions were my work."

God help me to not miss you when you are in the "disguise of interruption."
