## Verse
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.” — Hebrews 12:1 (WEB)
## Reflection
You weren’t meant to run this race weighed down. Lay it aside — the worry, the guilt, the burden that was never yours to carry. God’s invitation today is not “try harder.” It is “let go.” Drop the weight. Untangle the sin. Run free.
