Jonah - Life Interrupted

Hi God,

Today, I started Priscilla Shirer's, Jonah, Navigating a Life Interrupted. Very excited about the next six weeks of bible study with the women.

The first question asked, "How has you life been interrupted lately? OMG!

• Car accident
• Knee surgeries
• Loss of employment
• Loss of income
• Son incarcerated
• Son having a baby
• Mississippi property
• Maryland property
• My best friend's mom becoming ill

Jonah was the only prophet who received instructions from God and RAN from what God told him to do.

Jonah was told by God to go to Nineveh, which a brutal, violent, hopeless place; an enemy of Israel.

God often sends us into the hopeless places because it's in the hopeless place that we can see the hope of God.

So can we really view life's interruptions as that if we also believe that those same things are purposeful, opportunities and in God's plan---Then, aren't those interruptions actually divine intervention?!

I have to believe that each one of the above "interruptions" that I listed has to some how be used to search for significance! How many things/people/relationships will be affected on my response.

God, allow me to respond in complete obedience.
Yo
