2 Corinthians 11:23-25

24 Three times people beat me with sticks, and once they threw rocks at me. Three times I was in a boat when it broke in the sea. I have been in the water all one night and day.

I have had hard times in the desert. I have had hard times on the water. I have had hard times among those who should have been my brothers and were not.
