Galatians 4:16-20

16So have I become your enemy 1by 2telling you the truth? 17They eagerly seek you, not commendably, but they wish to shut you out so that you will seek them. 18But it is good always to be eagerly sought in a commendable 3manner, and 4not only when I am present with you. 19 5My children, with whom 6I am again in labor until 7Christ is formed in you-- 20but I could wish to be present with you now and to change my tone, for 8I am perplexed about you.
