Ep. 14: What to Leave in 2024
As 2024 comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to reflect on what we’re leaving behind and making space for in the new year. In this episode, we share personal insights about the habits, beliefs, and struggles we’re letting go of to step into 2025 with clarity and purpose. Join us as we explore thought-provoking questions to help you identify what no longer serves you and embrace the freedom that comes with letting go. Let’s chase purpose together as we release the past and step boldly into the future. SCRIPTURES:
Releasing Burdens
Matthew 11:28-30"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
1 Peter 5:7"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."
Letting Go of the Past
Isaiah 43:18-19"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland."
Philippians 3:13-14"Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."
Releasing Fear
2 Timothy 1:7"For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline."
Isaiah 41:10"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
