Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
Take it to the Lord. That is what I hear in this passage. Paul has this thorn in his side, which causes him pain and grief on a regular basis. And in the midst of this pain he hears the word from Jesus, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Too often we imagine that we can handle our problems, our pain, ourselves. We refuse, for some reason, to go to the Lord with whatever may be troubling us. But in this passage we learn that Christ should be our number one destination when things are troubling us. When we are in a time of suffering we need to go to the Lord, recognize that his grace is sufficient to carry us through times of suffering. When you are troubled, take it to the Lord. God bless you.
