Have you ever begged God for something? “Please God, I can’t function with this…Take it away…PLEASE GOD…PLEASE!!!”

Summary: Physical Pain, Unanswered Prayers, Grace OUT OF WEAKNESS…STRENGTH

Paul says, “I was a violent man, I was a blasphemer, I was someone who persecuted believers…I was the worst sinner who ever lived.” (1 Timothy 1:13)

We all have them Steve, Paul was an excellent example of living with it and pressing forward in his service of his God Jehovah. Every single one of us could find excuses for our "thorn" to take precedence above our faith.
