The Knots Prayer

The Knots Prayer

Dear God,

Please untie the knots

That are in my mind,

My heart

And my Life.

Remove the have nots,

The 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.

Mother Teresa and Child

Release me from the could nots,

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
