Paul » Has "a thorn in the flesh,"
And that I might not be elated with my extraordinary revelations, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, an angel of Satan to beat me, that I should not be too much exalted. For this I besought the Lord thrice that it might leave me. And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you; for power is perfected in weakness.
but you knew I preached the gospel to you on my former [visit] in weakness of the flesh, and my trial in my flesh you despised not nor rejected, but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.
