2nd Corinthians 5:9

6 So, then, we are ever without fear, and though conscious that while we are in the body we are away from the Lord,

7 (For we are walking by faith, not by seeing,)

8 We are without fear, desiring to be free from the body, and to be with the Lord.

9 For this reason we make it our purpose, in the body or away from it, to be well-pleasing to him.

10 For we all have to come before Christ to be judged; so that every one of us may get his reward for the things done in the body, good or bad.

11 Having in mind, then, the fear of the Lord, we put these things before men, but God sees our hearts; and it is my hope that we may seem right in your eyes.

12 We are not again requesting your approval, but we are giving you the chance of taking pride in us, so that you may be able to give an answer to those whose glory is in seeming, and not in the heart.
