"A thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure." - 2 Corinthians 12:7Recommended Reading 2 Corinthians 12:7-10
Dr. J. Oswald Sanders says that Paul first viewed his "thorn" as a limiting handicap; but later, seeing it in true perspective, he regarded it as a heavenly advantage. Our pains and problems are tools reminding us to appropriate God’s all-sufficient grace.
What about that nagging irritation that you are dealing with today? Look at it through God's eyes and see the opportunity for spiritual growth and advancement in your "thorn".
Have a wonderful, Christ-honoring week, dear friends!
