Monday
2 Corinthians 2:1
So I said to myself, “No, I won’t do it. I won’t make anyone unhappy with another painful visit.”
Tuesday
2 Corinthians 2:2
For if I cause others pain and make them sad, who is going to make me glad?
Wednesday
2 Corinthians 2:3
That is why I wrote as I did last, so that when I do visit, I will not be made sad by the very ones who ought to give me the greatest joy. Surely you know that my happiness depends on your happiness.
Thursday
2 Corinthians 2:4
How painful it was to write that letter! Heartbroken, I cried over it. I didn’t want to hurt anyone, but I wanted others to know how very much I love them.
Friday
2 Corinthians 2:5
I am not overstating it when I say that a man who causes trouble hurts an entire church more than he can hurt me.
