Satanic rip-off
1 Peter 5:8-9
A basketball fan at the Portland airport awaited the arrival of the Trailblazers following a victory over the Lakers and attempted to scalp a couple of tickets to the next game. As the shyster wormed through the crowd, he located a well-dressed man who listened to his offer.
"How much?" asked the gentleman.
"One hundred 50 bucks," the scalper replied under his breath.
"Do you realize you're talking to a plain clothes officer of the law?" the man asked. "I'm going to turn you in, fella."

Suffering
2 Corinthians 1
Of all the letters Paul wrote, Second Corinthians is the most autobiographical. In this letter Paul records the specifics of his anguish, tears, affliction, and satanic opposition. He spells out the details of his persecution, loneliness, imprisonments, beatings, feelings of despair, hunger, shipwrecks, sleepless nights, and that "thorn in the flesh"—his companion of pain. How close it makes us feel to him when we see him as a man with real, honest-to-goodness problems, just like ours!
