I’m so tickled at what Jesus did for my knee this weekend. As many of you know, I have been having trouble with my knee for several weeks. At the beginning of the beach trip, about the 2nd day, my knee started swelling and getting stiff. I couldn’t put any pressure on it or bend it. It felt like I had a cottonball behind my kneecap – squishy.
I went to the doctor and he said I had overworked it. He took an X-ray and everything looked normal. He gave me a stronger inflammation medication, told me to ice it, and stay off of it for a few days. So I did that.
I dealt with it pretty well considering it was very tough to miss out being with everyone at the beach. 
And not to mention the strain it was putting on the other parts of my body. It’s amazing how much one part of the body affects another. It puts so much weight on the other parts. Needless to say, by the 5th or 6th week, my body was getting tired.
I was so exited about tract night and the weekend! By this time, the swelling had gone down but I still could not bend it and it still felt like there was a cottonball behind it. So Friday night, I bandage it up really good and wore my good shoes…. 
Saturday night I was so wanting to pray with our soon to be new brother. So when the time came, I was so tickled! Then, he went down on the floor. I thought, what am I going to do, I can’t bend my knee. It felt so good praying for Mark, I said, “Lord, I’m just going to do it”. I didn’t even know if I could but I did! I knew someone would help me if I couldn’t get up later.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time there on the floor! We have a new brother now!! I had sweet Ellie right there with me and little Isaac. And so many sweet people around me. I was on my knees, bent, the whole time I was on the floor.
At the end, I was a little stiff and needed help getting up. We went back to Randell and Doris’ and I doctored it up. When I woke up in the morning, I could bend my knee and there was no squishy feeling behind my it!! 
🏻 Thank you Jesus.
Yesterday, after we got home, I took a nap and when I got up to walk across the floor, my body had been trained to limp and not put pressure on that knee. I heard the Spirit say to me, “walk normal”! So I did, and have been since. I love that. When Jesus heals a part of our body that has been broken, he wants us to walk normal in that. If we don’t, it will remain weak.
So thankful. It’s a relief. Not only am I thankful for what he did for me, but it is because of us that he did what he did. Love you all and so thankful for the wonderful time we had together this weekend.
