2 Corinthians 12:13 - Additional Comments

Why is Paul asking forgiveness for not being a burden to the Corinthians? Prov 14:4 "Where no oxen are, the trough is clean; But much increase comes by the strength of an ox." Challenges build character and godly life style, so Paul was apologizing for not challenging them, thus they missed the growth and ministry opportunity.
