It has recently been on my thoughts lately how some of these people who 'have all the answers' for what to do with our prodigal spouses would have consulted Paul if he told them about the 'thorn in his side' he had(without knowing what God told him).
I'm sure there would be all kinds of, "Well, you need to...", and "You shouldn't accept that...", "God wouldn't want you to...", "You need to take care of yourself...", "You deserve to be happy...".
Yet what did Paul do? He was obedient and cried out repeatedly to his Heavenly Father to remove the 'ailment'. What did God say?
[2 Corinthians 12:8-10] "My grace is sufficient for you".
How many of us really want to tackle that passage head on??
