Have you ever been trying to get some things done and yet had to keep stopping due to some unexpected interruptions? Life itself can be like this, right? Trials and tragedies can sometimes impact the plans that we are working on so feverishly.This week, for example, a hurricane blew through Houston and has greatly impacted the lives of residents. Some still have no electricity. Others are waiting to have huge trees removed from their homes. Why do natural disasters like this even occur? What’s the best response when our comfortable lives are interrupted by the unexpected?Jesus was interrupted three times during a discourse that He began in Luke 12:1. By Luke 13:1 the third interruption centered around a question related to an atrocity carried out against some Galileans by Roman troops serving under Pilate. As Jesus responds, He also brings up an additional accident that had occurred where a tower fell and killed 18 people.Is there something that we can learn through a catastrophe or a serious crime? What should occupy our thoughts when life is interrupted by tragedy and loss? Jesus has the answer for us in Luke 13:1-9.Prompts for Additional Explanation, 13:1Prejudice behind Inexplicable Exploitation, 13:1Problem of an Incorrect Evaluation, 13:2Puzzle of a Random Expiration, 13:4Primacy of Fervent Evangelization, 13:3, 5Purpose (or Plan) for Divine Exaltation, 13:5Patience despite an Unrealized Expectation, 13:6-7Postponement to a Perplexing Equation, 13:8-9Growing in Grace Devotions and Inspirations  Hosted by Pastor Victor Morrison  First Baptist Church1700 Milam StreetColumbus, TX, USA 78934http://fbccolumbustx.org/
