Introduction
Paul speaks of his plans to visit the Corinthians for a third time. His second visit had been a painful one (2 Corinthians 2:1). He mentions his ability to perform miracles proves he is a true apostle in comparison to the special “apostles” who had been deceiving the people. Paul reminds the Corinthians once again he did not ask the Corinthians for monetary support, and his concern now is, by so doing, he caused the Corinthians to miss out on a blessing. The reading concludes with Paul expressing some fears about what he will encounter when he visits the church in Corinth.
Scripture Reading
2 Corinthians 12:11-21
Today’s Key Verse: 2 Corinthians 12:19b
[Paul writes:] We speak as Christ would have us speak in the presence of God, and everything we do, dear friends, is done to help you.
Reflect
How does Paul express his concern for the Corinthians (verses 14-19)? What does Paul fear when he comes to visit again (verses 20 and 21)? What preparations does your community of faith make when they anticipate the arrival of a special guest?
Pray
Gracious God, you are always near, ready to help in times of distress and drive out my fears. I trust in your promises, knowing you will surround me with your steadfast love and care. Amen.
