Let It Go : 5 Things You Don't Need Taking Up Space In Your Heart

Too often we carry our wounds from one battle into another or hold onto them even after the battle is long past. By constantly revisiting and dwelling on these traumatic memories we can unintentionally allow the seeds of worry, fear and insecurity to be sown. All of which can sprout and grow and become life choking, just like a wild vine or a flower bed full of weeds.

In this study journal, I have invited several of our Soul Friends to join in this discussion about some things God has helped them to let go of in their own lives. Fear, bitterness, regret, shame and people-pleasing. Do you have any of these weeds sprouting in your life?

Join us to let it go.

Feel free to use these study materials at your own pace. Each of the 5 sections features a different topic and worksheets with additional journaling space. The teachings are short and could be used daily or weekly. It also makes a great study journal to use in a group setting with your friends or study partners.

If I allow the weeds of the past to grow, they will not allow any room for my present to bloom and flourish.

- Jana Kennedy Spicer, Let It Go

Human emotions are like roller coasters and what hurts today can be forgiven tomorrow. We never know what someone is going through, and we should never judge.

- Mitzi Neely, Let It Go

Past mistakes and sin keep us chained to regret. But a godly repentance helps us let go and ask forgiveness from God and others. Then, those chains no longer hold us captive.

- Karen Friday, Let It Go

Being brave means trusting our ugly truths to the grace giving God who sees us and loves us still.

- Amy  Elaine Martinez, Let It Go

"Jesus is calling us to stop walking in step with the world and start walking in step with the Word.
Because when we walk in step with Jesus, our soul finds rest."

- Natalia Drumm, SAVOR the Season

"Instead of viewing God's laws as a dry list of do's and don'ts meant to keep us in line for the sake of control, we must acknowledge that His ways are higher than ours. Against the grain of human pride, we need to simply admit He is right."

- Elaine Lankford, SAVOR the Season

"Hospitality began with God. He invited you to know Him, knocking at your heart's door and beginning an intimate relationship. Once you open your heart to His invitation, He asks you to extend His invitation to your world."

- Sue Moore Donaldson, SAVOR the Season

"We should revel in the greatest victory and rescue of all: the birth of Jesus Christ, God taking on human flesh, humbly born in a manger."

- Monica Bard, SAVOR the Season

This Time

In those times when our world shifts on its axis, we turn to the scriptures for comfort and God’s reassurances – and rightly so. One scripture that Christians take great comfort in is Jeremiah 29:11.
“This Time” will take you on a deeper journey of this popular scripture to understand what Jeremiah was actually saying to the people of Israel in his letter and learn if it holds a promise for us today.
