Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Second Wind, Matheus Veiga unpacks one of the most challenging parts of following Jesus: living with the “thorn” God hasn’t removed.Drawing from 2 Corinthians 12:7-10, Matheus reflects on Paul’s plea for relief and God’s surprising answer — that His power is made perfect in weakness. Instead of removing the thorn, God used it to form Paul into a leader marked by humility, dependence, and surrendered strength.Matheus invites us to consider our own wounds, limits, and weaknesses not as disqualifiers, but as places where God desires to meet us, shape us, and reveal His power in ways we could never manufacture on our own.If you’ve been frustrated by an area of weakness or carrying something you wish God would fix, this episode will help you see your thorn differently — not as a punishment, but as a place where grace takes root.
