In the #4 spot on Real Talk with Rachael's top 10 countdown, author Sarah Philpott shares wisdom from her book, The Growing Season: A Year of Down-on-the-Farm Devotions. Using farming as a powerful metaphor, Sarah explains the importance of spiritual rest—just as fallow ground needs time to replenish its nutrients, we need seasons of stillness to restore our souls. She encourages pruning commitments that no longer fit your priorities, even if they’re “good” things, and reminds us that no one is doing it all. Sarah also highlights the beauty of spiritual growth—when the fruit of the Spirit flows more naturally, you’ll know you’re maturing. Whether you’re planting new seeds or finally seeing the fruits of long-term effort, trust that God is working in every season.
This week, ask Him, What area do You want to grow in my life? and What’s my part in that growth? Then write it down—you might be surprised by what He reveals.
