We begin our new year in a study to help us to look at how to deal with the pains & trials that life will tend to throw our way. The Apostle Paul suffered greatly as he knew that it was his lot in life. You don't get to be used by God to write 2/3rds of the New Testament without going through some great deal of pain & suffering. Jesus told us "in this world you will suffer persecution for my name sake." Tonight we look at the thorns that Paul spoke of and how we can apply his of handling ours.
