2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
If Paul hadn’t had a thorn in his flesh he wouldn’t have known the power of God’s sufficient grace for his aggravation. He wouldn’t have known the perfect strength from God in his weakness.
I’m with Paul. “I’d rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”
When you are going through suffering, spend extra time in the Word of God. He will speak to you. He gives sufficient grace to His children when they are afflicted.
