Read:
Sometimes the past feels like a backpack we’re still carrying. We don't forgive ourselves for making that mistake. We don’t let ourselves forget the decision we regret. We carry fear that we’ll be disappointed again, just like last time.
What’s weighing you down right now? God invites you to hand them over to him—not to forget them, but to trust him with them. Letting go creates space for what’s next and reminds you that God’s power is bigger than your baggage.
Reflect: What do you need to release to God so you can step into this new year with freedom and hope?
Pray: God, I give you my regrets, mistakes, and disappointments. Help me trust you with the past and walk into this new year free from what holds me back. Amen.
