Hey friends, welcome back to My Faith Is Bigger Than My Fears. I’m so glad you’re here.

Today’s episode is called “No One Said This Would Be Easy.” And if you’re walking through that season of learning how to “adult your adult children,” you know exactly what that means. It’s that bittersweet space between loving deeply and letting go — between guiding and stepping back — between being needed and being still while God steps in.

Proverbs 22:6 reminds us, “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”But what that verse doesn’t say is how it feels when they’re “old” — when you have to trust that what you’ve planted will grow in God’s timing.

No one said this would be easy — but with God, we don’t have to face it alone.

Episode Title: No One Said This Would Be Easy — Adulting Adult Children While God Fills the Void

Parenting doesn’t stop when your children become adults — it simply changes. In this heartfelt episode, we explore the bittersweet journey of learning to love, guide, and let go as our grown children step into their own lives and faith journeys.

With honesty and encouragement, we talk about what it feels like when the house grows quiet, the phone rings less, and we’re left wondering, “What now, Lord?” Through it all, we discover that while this season isn’t easy, it’s sacred — because God steps into the spaces our children once filled.

Scriptures like Proverbs 22:6, Isaiah 54:13, and Philippians 4:6–7 remind us that our role now is to pray, trust, and release. Letting go isn’t giving up — it’s giving over — allowing God to do what only He can in our children’s lives.

And as we surrender them, God fills our hearts with new peace, purpose, and presence. Just as Isaiah 43:19 says, “See, I am doing a new thing!” — this season can be one of renewal, not loss.

Whether you’re missing your grown kids, praying through their struggles, or rediscovering yourself in this new chapter, this episode will remind you that your story — and theirs — is still in God’s hands.

Because no one said this would be easy… but with God, your faith is always bigger than your fears.
