INSPIRED BY SHEENA DAYMAN


Whilst on Hope FM talking about the Brazil Mission Trip yesterday, Sheena Dayman called to say that she does not have knees like a camel!! Curious comment, but maybe we should have knees like camels...and if we don't...then perhaps we should pray more:


'James, the brother of the Lord, and the author of this Epistle, was nicknamed “Camel-knees” by the early Church. James had been so slow of heart to believe that his brother, Jesus, could possibly be the Christ, that, after he was brought to believe, he was never off his knees. And when they came to coffin him, it was like coffining the knees of a camel rather than the knees of a man, so hard, so worn, so stiff were they with prayer, and so unlike any other dead man’s knees they had ever coffined.'
