My Only Shortcoming Is Not Letting You Pay Me! I Will Gladly Spend Myself For You!

13 For what is it as to which you were worse-off [a] than the other churches?— except that I myself did not burden[b] you. Forgive me this wrong-doing! 14 Behold— this is the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden. For I am not seeking your things, but you.
