Life is not a sprint. It is not even a marathon. No, life is a Tough-Mudder, Iron-Man, and Spartan Race all rolled into one! Perhaps, in the middle of this race, you have found yourself exhausted, overwhelmed, depleted, and defeated. If so, it's time for a restart. Grab hold of this devotional and let the next 100 days be the first 100 days of the rest of your life. 
George Muller wrote, "The vigor of our spiritual life will be in exact proportion to the place held by the Bible in our life and thoughts." A.W. Tozer once commented, "Nothing less than a whole Bible can make a whole Christian." Some devotionals offer you only a Scripture or two followed by a short blurb and a pithy quote. If you are looking for spiritual nourishment, that would be nothing more than a light snack. True spiritual sustenance requires much more. 
If you want a "full meal," check out The First Hundred Days of the Rest of Your Life. This transformation-driven devotional will provide you with a portion of Scripture to read, a handful of questions to think through, suggested prayers to offer up, and action steps to apply God's Word.

READ: 2 Timothy 1
George Mueller is one of my great heroes of the faith, though his life certainly did not have the beginnings of a great hero. He was born in 1805 and grew up in Prussia, which is located in present day Germany. By age sixteen, Mueller was a thief, a liar, an alcoholic, and in prison. Yet, at age twenty, he met the Lord and dedicated himself to God's service.
 
Seven years later, he moved to England. While there, he began to feel a burden for all the street children he saw wandering the cold and mean streets of Ashley Downs, England. Mueller believed that God was calling on him to start an orphanage to house and bless those little ones.
 
Much to the surprise of everyone but Mueller, money for an orphanage started pouring in. Soon the orphanage was built, and within two years it grew to one hundred boys. Mueller built another orphanage and then another and another. At one point, Mueller had five orphanages that were housing over two thousand children. 
 
George Mueller kept a dairy for all of his adult life. It is one of the most fascinating and amazing pieces of literature in the world. In it, Mueller records over 50,000 answers to prayer. More than five thousand of those answers came on the same day that he prayed for them.
 
In the last of his ninety-three years of life, the Lord provided the following"gifts" for the support of the thousands of children in his orphanages. 7203 loaves of bread donated, 5222 buns donated, 44,669 pounds of apples; forty sacks of potatoes; twenty boxes of soap, nine tons of coal, twenty-six haunches of venison, 4013 lbs. of meat, 112 rabbits and 312 pheasants, twenty-six cases of oranges, five boxes of dates, and hundreds of other items. This does not even include the cash donations which enabled him to purchase much more!
 
On Mueller's tombstone are these words, "He trusted in God with whom 'nothing shall be impossible,' and in His beloved Son Jesus Christ our Lord who said 'I go unto My Father, and whatsoever ye shall ask in My name that will I do that the Father may be glorified in the Son.'"
 
Who would have thought that a tombstone could be such a great testimony? It should make you wonder. If your tombstone was going to be a testimony to your life, what sentence would be etched upon it? 
 
 
THINK
In verse 13, Paul tells Timothy to pattern his words and life after his own. Could you confidently tell others to pattern their lives after you so they could move closer to faith and love in Christ?
 
 
Paul lists some people in verses 15-18. For what will those different people be forever known?
 
  
Who has God put into your life that you can pattern your life after in order to move closer to Christ? 
  
 
What would you need to change about yourself before you could confidently tell people, "Follow me as I follow Christ"?
  
 
PRAY
  • Thank God for the godly men and women He has brought into your life
  • Confess to God, if necessary, not living a life that would help others move closer to Christ
  • Ask God to help you deal with the things that are keeping you from fully following Christ
  • Ask God to use you to help others know Him better

 
APPLY
Spend some time thinking about what you want to be remembered for. Pray about the sentence you want written on your tombstone
