Knee by olivetreeann

Knee

In football they take a knee when they want to end a play. In faith we take a knee when we know there's no other solution to the situation we're in or we're grateful for something in our lives. There is an interesting connection in the Old Testament with worship and the knee- the literal translation of worship is "to take to the knee", meaning to kneel or bow down. Back in April many people took to their knees on my behalf when I was put on a ventilator when the covid virus threatened to destroy my lungs and I am so grateful for them! I am a living, breathing miracle thanks to all those knees.
A beautiful narrative, I’m so thankful you were surrounded by prayer warriors. This is a dear image.

Beautiful thoughts. We have a friend who is in hospital going through exactly what you went through
Her name is Lucy. She is currently in ICU on a ventilator

I love Willow Tree figurines and I have just ordered one for my sister. The Angel of Healing. I will give it to her for Christmas. She was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a mastectomy last December. I hope the angel helps.

Your commentary helps me to understand better what all the hoopla has been about in the past number of years. I really didn't understand the reason that "taking a knee" during the national anthem could be offensive to so many. My experience had always been as you describe.

@randystreat Yes, it is quite offensive when you consider the very country they are disrespecting and showing disdain for has made them millionaires and billionaires. If this country is soooooo bad, then move out and find a job somewhere else. Right?

Thank you so much for your well-wishes, thankfulness and for supporting my 365 project so often as you do! 365 was one of the things I couldn't wait to get home and get back to. Thankfully I was off the ventilator in 9 days and home after 13- truly unheard of in medical circles. My heart goes out to those who did not experience what I did and for the families whose loved ones did not come home.
