3 For our appeal does not spring from deceit or impure motives or trickery,
4 but, just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the message of the gospel, even so we speak, not to please mortals but to please God, who tests our hearts.
5 As you know and as God is our witness, we never came with words of flattery or with a pretext for greed,
6 nor did we seek praise from mortals, whether from you or from others,
7 though we might have made demands as apostles of Christ. But we were gentle among you, like a nurse tenderly caring for her own children.
Prayer Focus: How do we treat things that have been entrusted to us? Are we good stewards or do we use what we have received for our own gain? Just like the apostle Paul, we have been entrusted with the message of the gospel. How will we speak about it? How will we share it with others? What will others think about Christ based on what they see in us? Pray that you might use this amazing gift well today.
