They could not point to anything Paul actually did, so they accused him of what they imagined was in his heart. That is the easiest charge to make and the hardest to disprove. Who have you convicted lately on evidence only God can see?

The wall of insights
What touches you in Scripture? What can we pray for? What can we thank God for?
Father, when someone I love is grieving, I rush to cover their pain with something comfortable. Teach me to sit…Father, when someone I love is grieving, I rush to cover their pain with something comfortable. Teach me to sit with them first, to ask what is really wrong, and to listen before I offer anything. Let my care go deeper than a quick fix.

Pressing close is not the same as reaching out. You can sit in church for years, surrounded by the noise, and never actually touch him. He knows the difference. Which one are you doing today?
