Interruptions can feel frustrating, but what if they are actually invitations from God? In Mark 5, Jesus was on His way to heal a dying girl when a desperate woman reached for Him in faith. Instead of rushing past her, He stopped, acknowledged her, and restored her completely.

In this message, we see how Jesus modeled interruptibility—and how, when we allow our plans to be interrupted, God’s mercy can flow through us to those in need. Faith in Jesus frees us to be people of mercy in a merciless world—but we must be willing to pause, listen, and act when He calls.

Questions for Reflection:

• How do you typically respond to interruptions in your day?

• What would it look like for you to be more interruptible for God’s work?
