In your life, do you ever feel like you're trying to untie a knot? My favorite is the tiny knot on the chain of a necklace. It requires an amazing amount of focus and patience, and I always consider just leaving it... But something in me usually perseveres and I find a line that seems to pull free and start the whole thing unraveling. This week, I felt like I was that little knot and God was my patient and persevering savior - patiently undoing my tangled mess of thoughts, tasks, and worries. Thank you, my Rescuer...
Untangle me,
pull my loops that undo,
find some straight line in me,
unwind it,
unbind me,
pull me through.
Then lay me down,
drape me around,
your strong neck,
and hang me true.
::
The Lord is close to all who call on him,
yes, to all who call on him in truth.
He grants the desires of those who fear him;
he hears their cries for help and rescues them.
- Psalm 145:18-19
