scripture
2 Corinthians 12:7-10
To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
En Espanol, 2 Corintios 12:7-10

Frustration, although quite painful at times, is a very positive and essential part of success.

thought
What thorn is there present in your life? Are you allowing it to control you? Are you allowing it to teach you? Personally, my present thorn is controlling me. I am allowing it to consume my thoughts. I am allowing it to make me act in snide ways. I did not realize how much I relied on myself until now. I am being taught that I am hopelessly inadequate to operate on anything other than God’s good grace.
