Truth Exposed:  

In 2 Corinthians 12 we read about Paul having a thorn in his flesh.  Verse 7 is very enlightening.  We learn 3 things about Paul in this short verse.  (1) He received some great revelations from God, which were not disclosed here.  (2) He received a thorn in his flesh, a messenger of Satan, which was a demon.  We don’t know if it was a physical, mental & emotional, or spiritual affliction, but it was GIVEN to him, allowed by God.  (3)  Why?  To keep Paul from becoming conceited!!  How easy it is to get a “big head” when we are specifically chosen for something special.  Interesting insight:  was Paul so egotistical that he needed to be tempered?  After all, he WAS an important Pharisee!!  Old habits die hard.
