Some of the heaviest burdens we carry are not situations, but people—specifically, the expectations we continue to hold for them. In this episode of QuickWord, Chaplain Nolan White reflects on the quiet exhaustion that comes from waiting on others to change and the freedom that comes when we release responsibility that was never ours to carry. Grounded in Scripture and spoken with pastoral care, this devotional invites listeners to choose wisdom, boundaries, and peace as they finish the year clean—trusting God with what they cannot fix.
