I wrote this as an entry for the Writer’s Digest Your Story Contest #128 that gave, as a prompt, a picture of a hedge with clipping shears rising from behind.
What a good story. It was also a good reminder that the little things people do on the spiritual path, which may outwardly seem insignificant, may be important for the individuals inner growth. I liked how you spoke about the freedom in the heart and his affirmation/determined prayer to God undoing the knot in his gut and releasing the energies there to join that freedom in the heart.

Thanks--I appreciate the thoughtful feedback!
