Summary:
In the sermon "God Breaking Through in the Everyday Interruptions," Pastor Vicki Harrison enlightens us that the disruptions in our daily routines are not mere obstacles but potential divine appointments orchestrated by God. Drawing from Jesus' ministry in Mark 1:21-28, she illustrates how Jesus' most impactful acts and teachings often unfolded amidst interruptions. These moments were not distractions but opportunities for profound spiritual encounters and transformations.
Pastor Harrison invites us to view the unexpected events that disrupt our plans through a new lens, seeing them as moments filled with the potential for God to work through us. This perspective challenges us to be open to God's guidance in every aspect of our lives, aligning with New Hope's mission to make more and better followers of Jesus Christ. It echoes our values of loving Jesus, caring for all people, and being open to taking risks and making bold decisions for the Gospel.
Let us embrace the unexpected interruptions in our lives as opportunities to serve God and others. Whether it's a chance encounter, a delay in our plans, or an unforeseen event, may we ask God what He is saying to us in those moments, what He wants us to do, and how we can use the opportunity to serve Him and bring Him glory. Let's commit to being attentive to the Holy Spirit's prompting, ready to act in love and obedience when God breaks through our daily routines.
