More Than A Thorn
What if you asked everyday , “Dear Lord, remove this from me! I can’t have this anymore as a thorn in my life!” Thorns hurt! For three times the Apostle Paul asked and received his answer.

“Even though I have received such wonderful revelations from God. So to keep me from becoming proud, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger from Satan to torment me and keep me from becoming proud. Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.

I know you feel like David running in the wilderness or Moses in the dessert. I know that you see the victory of many and are wondering why your day is taking long to arrive…and not only is it taking long but worse things are happening in the interim…i know that you are smiling but deep down you are not content. I know that you are laughing but deep down you feel sorrow…I know people say that you are strong and you got this but deep down you feel weak! I know that you feel like everything is really stripped away and that all TOO many times your hanging on by a limb. Continue reading
