The Knots Prayer
Dear God:
Please untie the knots
that are in my mind,
my heart and my life.
Remove the have nots,
can nots and the do nots
that I have in my mind.
Please untie the knots
that are in my mind,

Remove the have nots,
can nots and the do nots
that I have in my mind.
Erase the will nots,
may nots,
might nots that may find
a home in my heart.
may nots,
might nots that may find
a home in my heart.
Release me from the could nots,
would nots and
should nots that obstruct my life.
would nots and
should nots that obstruct my life.
And most of all,
Dear God,
I ask that you remove from my mind,
my heart, and my life all of the ‘am nots’
that I have allowed to hold me back,
especially the thought
that I am not good enough.
Amen

How powerful is this? I have never seen this, and had to share it today.
"knot" a bad poem! It rings of much truth and yes, it's very powerful indeed. xoxo

Enjoyed this, Kathy~
ReplyDeleteAmen to that Kathy. What a lovely prayer. Something to meditate on. Thank you. x
ReplyDeleteI really like the first line. about untying the knots in the mind.
ReplyDelete:) Technically though- we were given some "shall nots" to keep us safe and in line.
If we follow them, it helps to keep us from tying our selves into knots! :)
~*Thank you for sharing this one!*~
WOW....some powerful words and I see myself in those words. I will keep this powerful message and remind myself of some of the words mentioned in this. So glad you shared....
