Change Direction – Linda Fuller
Do you feel “stuck”? Is God calling you to change the direction of your life? In today’s devotional, you’ll be inspired to seek God’s plan for your future through the story of Habitat for Humanity co-founder Linda Fuller.
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.” (Hebrews 12:1).
Pray: Lord, let nothing separate me from you and your Word today. Help me uncover truth and live according to your commands.
Observe: In today’s busy culture, we always seem to be running. Running here and there, trying to keep up with family, friends, projects, responsibilities, and upcoming events. In the midst of our busy schedules, it’s vital we ask ourselves: Which way am I running and which way does God want me to run?
Each day, we find ourselves running toward people and things and away from people and things. How often do you stop to think about what or whom you are running toward, or what or whom you are running from? God has prepared opportunities and adventures for us. Yet past sin, pain, and failure often cause us to hesitate when God prompts us to make a change in direction. It’s up to us to recognize the possibilities, set aside our obstacles, and courageously walk toward God’s will.
Linda Fuller and her husband, Millard, founded Habitat for Humanity International in 1976. Success and wealth brought their marriage to a breaking point. Rather than accepting things as they were, they re-evaluated their lives and decided to make a drastic life change. They sold their possessions and dedicated the rest of their lives to Christian service, “seeking to put God’s love into action.” Today, “more than 13.2 million people have built or improved a stronger, more stable place to live with the organization’s help.”
Courageously change the direction of your life by applying the following principles:
1. Prayerfully evaluate the direction your life is currently heading.
2. Prayerfully consider the direction you believe God wants you to go.
3. Seek godly counsel regarding the process of change.
4. Determine the necessary steps and begin taking action.
Interpret: God has a plan for our lives. It’s up to us to remove the obstacles that stand in our way and follow his direction with endurance and determination.
Apply: Do you sense God calling you to change the direction of your life? Reach out to a godly friend, loved one, or mentor today and ask him or her to help you evaluate the path you believe God is encouraging you to take.
Pray: Father, thank you for preparing the way I should go. Please help me run toward you and in the direction of your will, even if it means I have to completely change directions.
