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,
                     the may nots, might nots,
                     that might find a home
                     in my heart.

                     Release me from the could nots, 
                     the would nots, and
                     the should nots,
                     that might obstruct my life.

                    And most of all
                              Dear God,
                    I ask that you remove my mind,
                    my heart and my life 'all of the am nots'
                    that I have allowed to hold me back,
                    especially the thoughts,
                    that I am not good enough.
                              Amen
                    (Author known to God)
    
                   This is such a beautiful prayer to me and
                    it honestly fits me!
                    I wish the author of this prayer had left
                    their name.

                    I was sent this prayer by someone that thinks I am a special person and that grew up in 
                    my neighborhood when I was in jr. high and high school, he came across this and said I
                    was the one he thought of when he read it and had to send it to me. I thanked him very much
                    for sending this to me because I love it so much! It seems to have been written for me because
                    it fits me to a T...with all of the "NOTS" I have carried with me through out my life! And here
                    someone was able to put them in a prayer (for me) is like they knew me.
                    So thank you to the person that wrote this and thank you to Pete for thinking of me and for 
                    telling me you think I am a special person and for sending me this prayer to me!
