Bad things happen to people\u2026even good people, due to 1) our environment, 2) demonic attack, 3) our decisions. <br>In 1 Corinthians 12 we see the inspired writer, Paul sharing his heart with the Corinthian believers. He describes having a thorn in his flesh spiritually. This passage is misunderstood mostly by unbelievers, but even some Christians miss the point. Let\u2019s find out what his thorn was and make sure we don\u2019t have any ourselves. God doesn\u2019t want us to have any spiritual thorns just like he doesn\u2019t want us to have physical thorns in our hands.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":10235,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10233","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-video"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10233"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10233\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15560,"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10233\/revisions\/15560"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10235"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/build4.scalingyourcompany.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
