Writing 2 Corinthians 2
Good morning, I see more heartache as Paul writes to the Church in Corinth.
“For I made up my mind not to make another painful visit to you.”
I have felt the pain of seeing those who are dear to me struggling with what is right in the Lord’s eyes. Wanting them to grow and love the Lord, knowing they have to go through the stages on their own. Knowing that if I am there I only cause more pain than good in that moment. Paul knew stepping back was the right thing to do. It would pain them both to be there in the moment.
Knowing when to be there and when to stand back is difficult. Knowing if it out of selfishness or selflessness is also hard for me because of the emotions I feel in the moment. Only the Lord knows, and time will tell. I pray the Lord will help me to know in the future.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!!
Stay in the Word!!
