Pressure to support others while managing their own lives. Over time, this pressure can feel normal. You adjust to it. You function under it. But that does not mean it is necessary. Some of what you are carrying may not be yours to begin with. This devotional will help you recognize what you have taken on, understand why it feels heavy, and begin to release it.

Each day includes Scripture, a short reading, a reflection, and a prayer to help you endure in faith and grow closer to Him.
