Freedom from pain
One morning, I woke up early, unable to find a position where pain at the top of my leg would permit me to sleep. Though it was difficult to focus, I turned to prayer. The Bible story of Jacob, alone, wrestling with a man, came to mind.
Finally, I got up and found that story in the Bible. It says: "Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him" (Gen. 32:24, 25).
Was the "hollow" of my thigh "out of joint"?
