2. let your actions speak for themselves
3. let your words be of worth
---
By the humility and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you--I, Paul, who am "timid" when face to face with you, but "bold" toward you when away! I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold as I expect to be toward some people who think that we live by the standards of this world [. . .] I do not want to seem to be trying to frighten you with my letters. For some say, "His letters are weighty and forceful, but in person he is unimpressive and his speaking amounts to nothing." Such people should realize that what we are in our letters when we are absent, we will be in our actions when we are present.
— 2 Corinthians 10:1-2 / 10:9-11---
"what do i do though, if people won't listen?"
"then quiet yourself and listen to them. hear them out. love without speaking."
