Have you ever tried to untangle a tangled hose? It has a mind of its own, as noose after noose refuses to budge, no matter what you pull. It even bops you on the head. Frustration, and challenge ultimately lead to success: an un-kinked hose neatly on its rack. Life can be a tangle hose...job loss, illness, loss of appetite, depression, all kinds of unwanted kinks in our lives. When our determination wavers, we might call upon Mary, Un-doer of Knots, or go directly to Jesus: "Amen, amen, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you>" (Jn 16:23). The tangled hoses come and go; there's always another time, even after unravelling it, it's never "for good." No, it tangles again. And Jesus is always there to untangle it with us.
