“Comfort Through Your Faith”

Blessings folk!

What brings you true joy?
What brings you true life?




Paul was concerned about the Body of Thessalonians.
Had they pressed on?
Had they persevered in the faith?
Had they embraced afflictions and maintained faith?

He sent Timothy to them to encourage and strengthen them in their faith.

Timothy had returned and reported to Paul.
Paul then writes this letter - 1 Thessalonians.

Note what Paul says…

1 Th 3:6-8

But now that Timothy has come to us from you,
and has brought us good news of your faith and love,
and that you always think kindly of us, longing to see us just as we also long to see you,

for this reason, brethren,
in all our distress and affliction we were comforted about you through your faith;

for now we really live, if you stand firm in the Lord.

Timothy had brought good news.
They remained firm in the faith.
They remained firm in love.
They thought kindly of Paul…remember, Paul had to flee under death threat. Would they think less of him?

Paul learned they longed to see him as much as he longed to see them.

Because of this, Paul was comforted about them through their faith.

Does your faith and deed bring comfort?
