interrupt

As I spent most of the day planning our coming home school year, I came across a C.S. Lewis quote.  "The great thing, if one can, is to stop regarding all the unpleasant things as interruptions of one's "own," or "real" life.  The truth is of course that what one calls the interruptions are precisely one's real life -- the life God is sending one day by day:  what one calls one's "real life" is a phantom of one's own imagination."  Put that together with yesterday's verse, Romans 8:28, and what do you have?  Everything works out for the good... even interruptions.
