About this ebook

From telemarketers to traffic jams to twenty-item shoppers in the ten-item line, our lives are full of interruptions. They're often aggravating, sometimes infuriating, and can make us want to tell people what we really think about them. But they also tell us something quite important about ourselves. 

The prophet Jonah's life was interrupted by a clear call of God that made him mad enough and scared enough to run in the completely opposite direction. Yet it wasn't really an interruption. It was an opportunity for Jonah to be involved in something the likes of which the Old Testament world had never seen: national revival in a Gentile country. 

What if Jonah had seen God's interruption for what it truly was— a divine intervention that held more adventure and possibility than any other thing he could have been doing at the time? What could have felt any better than being directly in the center of God's will? 

Yet we play it that same way—always running from major pains and minor problems that just don't seem to suit us at the time. Who knows what we're missing by being so interruption avoidant? In this very personal account of opportunities lost and lessons learned, popular conference speaker and author Priscilla Shirer shows how to embrace the amazing freedom and fulfillment that comes from going with God, even when He’s going against your grain. 

Las interrupciones son molestas y a veces exasperantes; pero aun así, diseñan los mejores planes que Dios tiene para tu vida. Aquellos que al fin de cuentas se diseñaron para ti, y que a menudo se oponen a los tuyos. 

Dios interrumpió la vida del profeta Jonás con un llamado que le requirió un cambio de vida total. Jonás se aterrorizó tanto que salió corriendo en dirección opuesta. Sin embargo, lo que aparentemente para él era una interrupción innecesaria e inservible, se transformó en una oportunidad para que fuera parte de algo que, en el mundo del Antiguo Testamento, jamás había sucedido antes. Esta interrupción fue realmente una intervención divina y tuvo más aventuras y posibilidades de las que él nunca podría haberse imaginado. 

Nosotros, tal como Jonás, solemos huir de las interrupciones. Cuando los grandes dolores y los pequeños problemas nos causan tropiezos en los planes y las metas que hemos pensado cuidadosamente, nosotros también nos encaminamos en la dirección opuesta. Quién sabe qué nos perderíamos al huir de lo que muy bien podría ser el medio que Dios emplea para redirigirnos hacia el resultado más grandioso de nuestra vida. Jonás puede contarnos uno o dos relatos, y tú también. De igual manera, Priscilla Shirer, la popular conferencista y escritora, también puede compartir desde una perspectiva estrechamente personal aquellas oportunidades perdidas y las lecciones aprendidas; y la asombrosa libertad y la satisfacción que provienen de andar con Dios aún cuando Él está yendo en el sentido contrario al tuyo.
