“If your right eye causes you to stumble…”
— Matthew 5:29–30 NASB1995
🌟 A House That Lets Go
Jesus isn’t calling us to harm our bodies—He’s calling us to fight for holiness. In a family, that means setting boundaries, removing stumbling blocks, and choosing obedience even when it’s inconvenient.
What is the “right eye” in your home? Is it a device, a show, a habit, or even a friendship? Anything that leads toward sin must be removed if the home is to shine with truth.
🕯 A Mother’s Role
Create a home culture that chooses holiness over comfort. Be courageous in removing things that invite temptation. Lead your children in setting boundaries—and model them with joy.
📖 Talk About It:
- What are we allowing that may be hurting us spiritually?
- What could we remove this week as a family to honor Jesus?
🪡 Kingdom Practice
Choose one thing to fast from this week as a family—a show, a snack, a screen—and fill that space with prayer or Scripture.
✍️ Prayer:
Lord, help our family let go of anything that leads us away from You. Give us joy in choosing obedience. Make our home a place where nothing stands between us and You. Amen.

● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
