Growth, Renewal & Inner Work
Week 10 — “Letting Go of What Drains You”
Scripture: “Throw off everything that hinders…” — Hebrews 12:1 (NIV)
Reflection: Sometimes the hardest part of moving forward is realizing what — or who — you need to let go of. Not out of anger, but out of wisdom. Not everything or everyone can go with you into the next season God has planned.
The Homestead Take Away: You can’t expect a healthy garden if you keep watering dead plants. Growth requires release.
Prayer: God, show me what I need to lay down to grow. Amen.


Eight years ago, my son disowned his father and me over our faith and politics. Since then, I have prayed everything I possibly knew what to pray. It was exasperating. Recently the Lord showed me I was wasting my time and that I had myself in chains over all of this. I repented and asked for forgiveness. Since then there has been so much freedom. Now I ask the Lord, who loves my son more than I do, to bless him. And I know He is and that He is drawing my son to Himself.
