Pain in the Neck

Neck, body, def:
The neck is the part of the body that distinguishes the head from the torso or trunk
The neck supports the weight of the head and protects the nerves that carry sensory and motor info from the brain down to the rest of the body
The neck is highly flexible and allows the head to turn and flex in all directions.

Giraffe Neck Trivia:
The giraffe's neck, despite its length, contains only seven vertebrae. This is the same number of neck bones that humans have!
The giraffe's neck is too short to reach the ground. If a giraffe wants to touch the ground (to drink or something) it has to spread its front legs apart or kneel down.
Sometimes male giraffes fight, but before they do, they often rub their head and necks together. Probably, they do this to try to figure out how heavy and tough their opponents are.

Shermer's Neck:
A condition where the neck muscles fail from fatigue and can no longer support the head (see pic)
Neck in the Bible: 81 verses in the NIV Bible related to the neck
Stiff necked
Broken neck

Don’t be a pain in the neck:
Be humble
Be flexible
Be kind
Be thoughtful

Give it to Jesus:
For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
He can take it
He can carry it
He is strong enough
He wants to, He has, He will
He proved it
