Thursday May 26, 2022 “This Thing”
2 Corinthians 12:8-9 8 Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. 9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Every person and nation has a “thing” which hinders and is a continual nuisance that just doesn’t go away not matter how much one prays.
Pray that as individuals and as a nation we will discover ways to overcome regardless of the fact that some things may never change. We need to “pivot” to keep living and influencing others through our life in the imperfect world. We can fulfil our purpose even when we see things could be better with the “thing” out of the way but we must not be side-tracked with the “thing” out of the way but we must not be side-tracked focusing on what may never change like Paul teaches us.
