I Can’t Wait!

A reminder that sometimes interruptions are actually the very thing we need in the moment.

I was able to see the northern lights from Camp Cowen tonight. Not because I remembered to go look for them. But only because of an “interruption.”

At campfire, when the pastor was giving the evening message, my youngest tapped my arm and whispered, “Mom, I have to go to the bathroom.” I answered, “Do you think you can wait until the message is done? It should be done soon.” She whispered back, “Do you think it will be long? I’ll try to wait.”

Just a few seconds later she whispered, “I can’t wait.”
