1 Thessalonians 2:17—3:13
Today’s Key Verse: 1 Thessalonians 3:12a

Reflect
Why did Paul refer to the Thessalonians as “our pride and our joy” (2:20)? Why did Paul send Timothy to Thessalonica? What did Paul learn about the Thessalonians from Timothy’s report? If someone were to visit your community of faith, what might they say?
Pray
Lord God, thank you for loving me. Draw me close to you and help me to reflect your love to everyone I meet today. Amen.
Prayer concern
Communities of faith that are facing challenges in doing ministry
Tomorrow’s Reading
1 Thessalonians 4:1-18: Paul encourages the Thessalonians to live in a way that is pleasing to God.
