A Thorn in the Flesh

We can’t escape trials and difficulties in life. We all face trying circumstances—whether financial hardship, career setbacks, broken relationships, fears, loneliness, or depression. Sometimes, when these troubles persist, we describe them as a “thorn in our flesh.” But our daily troubles aren’t necessarily “thorns.” In today’s devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef explores Paul’s thorn and what it teaches us today.
