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

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.

In Jesus Name,
Amen

Wow!

This morning as I was starting my day I discovered my wallet was missing. Talk about a panic. Ray and I searched the car, my purse...ok, purses...and everywhere in the house. I retraced my steps from yesterday and realized I had lost my wallet either at church, or at Wal-Mart. I hadn't used it at church, so I decided to start looking at Wal-Mart. I really thought this was a useless attempt, but I needed to cover all my bases. Who would find a wallet at Wal-Mart and return it? I thought about digging through the trash bins, etc. Not a pleasant thought.
I went to the Customer Service desk and told the lady I'd lost my wallet. She asked me to describe it, and when I did she perked up. "A wallet like that was turned and I think it's in the manager's podium." So she called the manager and I held my breath.
Sure enough, there was my wallet with driver's license, cash, social security card, debit card, credit card...everything in tact! Can you imagine!!!
I yelled, "Thank You, Jesus!" and we had a mini revival in the Kerrville Wal-Mart.

Now we could just chalk this up to luck, or marvel at the honesty of the person who returned it. But I praise God for His protection. Only He did this. Only He is worthy to be praised.

I'm so amazed, but I shouldn't be....afterall, this is Who He Is!

Stay Focused!
