Sufficient Grace

Saint Paul, as mighty in faith as he was, is struggling in today's passage (2 Corinthians 12:2-10). Many are criticizing his authenticity as an apostle. He himself wonders why he cannot heal himself from the thorn in his side. Instead of a "healing" he receives the powerful words from God: "My grace is sufficient for you; in weakness my power is revealed." This is not just true for Saint Paul, but also for us.
