Sufficient Grace
It is not good that I should brag, so let me put it this way. Whether in the body or in the spirit, I certainly cannot say. God allowed one to see heaven, some fourteen years ago. He heard words that he cannot speak, God wanted him to know. To keep me from being filled with pride, God then gave me a thorn. Three times I prayed, remove it, this burden that I've born. God said grace is sufficient. Through weakness, I'm made strong. And then God worked miraculously to show you I belong. I will come to you this third time, as Titus whom I sent. We've never asked you for support. Our lives we freely spent. I hear there's sin among you. Repent. Don't make God wait. Examine, is the Lord in you, lest you be reprobate. When I come don't make me chasten you. This is my humble prayer. So I write this in my absence, to warn before I'm there. Now peace and love and comfort, my wish for you has been. May the grace of Jesus Christ our Lord, be with you all. Amen.
