Paul » Has "a thorn in the flesh,"
And, that I might not be exalted overmuch by the exceeding greatness of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, that I might not be exalted overmuch. Concerning this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And He hath said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you; for My power is made perfect in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, will I rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
but ye know that through weakness of the flesh I proclaimed the Gospel to you formerly; and my trial in my flesh ye despised not, nor spurned; but ye received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.
