Giving Thanks for These Believers

Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.

constantly keeping in mind your work of faith and labor of love and perseverance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the presence of our God and Father,

just as you know how we were exhorting and encouraging and imploring each one of you as a father would his own children,

Now may our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you;

so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints.
