Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers, not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God. Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? ...

Hope for My Aimless Wandering - iBelieve Truth: A Devotional for Women - August 8

Hope for My Aimless Wandering - iBelieve Truth: A Devotional for Women - August 8

Hope for My Aimless Wandering By: Kristine Brown

“We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.” - Proverbs 16:9 , NLT

I love when the date rolls over to a new month on the calendar. Excitement builds as I stare at the blank squares in my planner. Those wide-open spaces on the page represent the potential for good things. And so, I begin the process of planning. Filling up every bit of white space with scribbled efforts - evidence of all my good intentions and striving to do it all.

Yet, even with all the spaces filled and the calendar full, I still don’t feel satisfied. Somehow my to-do list doesn’t give me the sense of direction I long for. I still feel like I’m wandering aimlessly through each day with nothing more than a busy schedule to show for it.

God knew there would be times when we would lack direction. Times we feel void of purpose, and like we can’t hear Him at all. In the book of Genesis, we find the story of a woman named Hagar, the handmaid to Sarah, Abraham’s wife. Hagar knew what it was like to have no direction, no purpose, no hope. Living among foreign people with customs very different from her own would’ve been hard enough. Add to that her new role as mother to Abraham’s first-born son. I’d say Hagar had every right to be overwhelmed by her circumstances.

When Sarah couldn’t conceive, she gave Hagar to her husband to have a child. The birth of Ishmael brought about years of strife between the two women. Sarah finally had enough when she saw Hagar’s son Ishmael making fun of her young son Isaac. She demanded that Abraham send Hagar and Ishmael away forever, so he did.

“So Abraham got up early the next morning, prepared food and a container of water, and strapped them on Hagar’s shoulders. Then he sent her away with their son, and she wandered aimlessly in the wilderness of Beersheba.” - Genesis 21:14

Have you ever felt like you were wandering aimlessly? No one to offer guidance, no answer up ahead to keep you moving in the right direction. Then you understand Hagar’s struggle that day. The father of her son, sworn to protect and care for them, sent them far away with not enough water to survive. Even the best-laid plans wouldn’t get her out of that mess. That’s when God opened her eyes to her next step.

Open my eyes next steps

“We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.” - Proverbs 16:9 NLT

In Hagar’s story, I can’t help but notice God’s timing. He spoke words of hope and healing to Hagar as she sat alone in the wilderness. The angel of the Lord called out to her in the quiet of her solitude and sadness. Verse 19 says, “God opened Hagar’s eyes, and she saw a well full of water.” She gave Ishmael a drink, and that one small step set them on a course to their promised future.

I’ll admit; I don’t like aimless wandering. Maybe that’s why I work so hard to fill every free moment with things to do. But I’m inspired by Hagar’s story today. Even though she faced incredible hardship, her journey teaches us an important lesson. Maybe when our plans aren’t getting us anywhere, the blank space on the calendar will allow us to hear God’s direction. 

So, let’s commit to leaving some blank space for God. We can even mark it on the calendar if we need a reminder! I pray the time we spend in God’s presence will outweigh the time we spend planning our lives. Then like Hagar, we will be open to hearing the voice of God in our wanderings. And I am convinced, we will experience peace and purpose through each step He determines.

Wandering Aimlessly In Life

The 23rd Psalm is considered by many to be the most beautiful passage in the entire Bible. It seems to articulate the desire of every heart: The need for guidance and care, the feeling of personal vulnerability, and yet the confidence that under the protective leadership of the Good Shepherd we will not be left to wander aimlessly in life.

The Lord God is the Shepherd of His people. We look to Him and He is the fulfillment of all our wants and desires. He brings us deep satisfaction, and we trust in His ability to shepherd us.

It is a great comfort to realize that God is watching out for us! We are part of His flock. If we will but follow His lead He will order our steps to find the right substance to sustain a strong spiritual relationship. If we will not wander from His lead we will be led to cool, clear waters that refresh and revive.

The psalmist David was clearly acquainted with the relationship between a shepherd and his sheep. His chore as a young man was to tend his father’s flock. He knew, through experience, how helpless sheep become without a caring shepherd. Because of his intimate relationship with sheep, David could see the contentment in the flock as they trusted him.

David said, “The Lord is my shepherd…” (Psalm 23:1). With that statement he said something of God and of himself. Through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit , David revealed God as a good shepherd who leads His sheep to the green pastures and still waters of life. He saw God as a good shepherd who brought comfort and protection to His people. David saw himself as the recipient of all of the shepherd’s goodness.

Jesus identified Himself as the Good Shepherd and at the same time affirmed His deity. He said, “I am the good shepherd…” (John 10:14). He made the intention of any good shepherd clear when He said, “…I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (v. 10). He went on to say, “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (v. 27).

Sheep that experience God’s best are sheep that follow Him closely .

He will lift our souls from failure, depression, and lack into a wealthy place. He will restore our souls and lives.

In looking at the soul, we find it very often misunderstood. The soul is not the spirit of man, though it is so closely linked that only the Word of God can make a clear distinction. The soul is where we find the will, the emotions, the intellect, and the mind of man. It is in the soul that the seed of God’s Word must be planted in order to bring about a change in lifestyle and experience.

The soul is the true seat of power in our lives. Without cooperation from our souls, God’s hands are almost completely tied in our lives. However, with cooperation God’s power will flow beautifully through any life. Give Him complete cooperation today. Allow His power to flow in and through you.

Deuteronomy 28:29-31 International Standard Version

29  As a result, you’ll wander aimlessly in broad daylight just as a blind person wanders in darkness. You won’t prosper in life. [ a ] Instead, you’ll be oppressed and plundered all day long, with no deliverer.

30  “You’ll be engaged to a woman, but another man will rape [ b ] her. You’ll build a house, but you won’t live in it. You’ll plant a vineyard, but you won’t harvest [ c ] it. 31  Your ox will be slaughtered in front of you, and you won’t be able to eat it. Your donkey will be stolen from you while you watch and won’t be returned to you. Your flock of sheep will be handed to your enemies, and there will be no deliverer.

Proverbs 5:6-10 niv.

She gives no thought to the way of life; her paths wander aimlessly, but she does not know it. Now then, my sons, listen to me; do not turn aside from what I say. Keep to a path far from her, do not go near the door of her house, lest you lose your honor to others and your dignity to one who is cruel, lest strangers feast on your wealth and your toil enrich the house of another.
