...of a thorn in my flesh

At church this morning, a couple got up after the sermon and shared a story of how the Lord had gotten them through a time of trial through the truths in His word (we were in Nehemiah 8 this week). The encouragement being that during hard times and "easy" times, believers should cling to, revere, celebrate, and obey Scripture. This couple had been told that she would never be able to conceive without medical intervention and they were about to start trying IVF when the husband felt the inclination to wait for 6 months before they started down that road. It was a struggle and there was a lot of grief they worked through, but only about a month into their waiting, a friend felt lead to pray that the wife's womb would be opened and they eventually found out that they miraculously conceived naturally that day! Their baby is due in a few weeks.  This was a huge praise and an incredible encouragement that the Lord can perform miracles while we wait on Him. But, can I confess so
