Have you ever noticed that we all have
some area of life that is just always a catch point. For some it may
be illness, for others career problems or finances, relationships,
temperament, or many others. Why is it that we all just have a
particular area that always causes us to struggle?
The Apostle Paul writes about this when
he talks about his “thorn in the flesh.” I'm so glad he never
named his thorn but simply stated that it was a problem. Otherwise
we may be tempted to say, “I'm so glad I don't struggle with that.”
Instead of criticizing yourself or
others for the difficulties we all face in life, rather offer
empathy, caring and love. When we do that we fulfill God's
commandment to carry each others burdens. If you are facing
difficulties right now, you are in my thoughts and prayers.
