Letting Go
"Cast your cares on the Lord."
— Psalm 55:22
Lord,
I carry so many things: worries, responsibilities, burdens that sometimes aren't even mine. This load is heavy and exhausts me.
Teach me to let go. To set down what is too heavy for me, to entrust You with what I cannot control, to do my part then trust You for the rest.
May I distinguish what is truly my burden from what I carry unnecessarily. May I know how to set down what doesn't belong to me.
Amen.

Reflection
What are you carrying that is too heavy? Visualize yourself laying this burden at God's feet.
For all those crushed under the weight of their burdens.
