2 Corinthians 1:12-17

12For our boast is this, the testimony of our conscience, that we behaved in the world with simplicity and godly sincerity, not by earthly wisdom but by the grace of God, and supremely so toward you.

13For we are not writing to you anything other than what you read and understand and I hope you will fully understand—

14just as you did partially understand us—that on the day of our Lord Jesus you will boast of us as we will boast of you.

15Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a second experience of grace.

16I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia, and to come back to you from Macedonia and have you send me on my way to Judea.

17Was I vacillating when I wanted to do this? Do I make my plans according to the flesh, ready to say "Yes, yes" and "No, no" at the same time?
