Tie A Knot and Hang On!
In times of frustration, insecurity, and lack of knowledge our imaginations and fears can begin to loom around us. They can paralyze us in so many ways. Creating ways that hold us in place and keep us from growing and moving ahead. We fail to help ourselves and those around us in need. THINGS get knotted up for sure.
The image of a knot in a rope or any other object can conjure up many thoughts. It shortens the length in the chain, rope, or ribbon. When one has a fine chain like in a piece of jewelry, it is very hard to undo and yet needs to be untangled. It would look awful and might even feel sharp around the neck. 
In a big rope made of twine that may be used on the farm, it may become stronger in that part of the rope. Perhaps it is meant as a place to grasp or to hook onto a piece of equipment. In the yard, a knot may denote a spot or obstacle to overcome. Ropes are used in navigation, on ranches, in the homes, and even in the office with cables.
Today I am using the image of a knot as a point of reference and thinking of it as a marker for a new beginning. It could be that place to step on and push off of to lift one up into a new direction. It is a time to education ourselves more, to put our imagination to rest. In place be used knowledge to have a better view in life. Education elevates our thinking, gives us options, and helps us long to learn more and more. We see that with every piece of wisdom, there is more to be had and investigated.
What is knotted in your life? Is it a relationship that is messed up with multiple messages. Is it, because you have made a bad decision and need to untwist things? You may consider getting outside help. Is a bad choice or health issues shortening up your life or making you stop in your tracts. Make sure your knots are intentional and if they are not, then it may be time to consider and repair them.
Have a Blessed and fruitful week. DELIGHT IN LIVING!
