Hey sister,
What is happening in this season of your life? For many of us – if not most of us in this messy middle, it’s a time that comes with transitions, changes, losses, limitations, lots of reflection – and questions without easy answers.
In 2 Corinthians chapter 12 Paul reveals that he struggled with something in his life that he called a thorn in his flesh – in other words, it affected his real, every day, flesh and blood life. He asked God three times to remove the thorn – I can relate to that! I mean, who doesn’t want to escape the pain that comes with thorns?
How about you, sister? Is there a thorn that is causing you pain right now? Something in your everyday life that you’re struggling with, that’s keeping you stuck or making it difficult to move forward toward what you believe is God's purpose for you in this season?
God had an answer for Paul’s thorn, and He has an answer for the thorns in our lives too. Spoiler alert -- The answer is grace. But wait! Before you think you know all about grace or that this is some kind of impractical answer that doesn’t meet you in the nitty gritty of what you’re dealing with – join me in this episode as we get deep into the REAL meaning of grace. We’re going to realize the reality of God’s abundant grace in us, the all-providing power that overcomes every thorn.
Joy to you!
Angie
