23.06.02 “To Be Like Jesus” (1 Thess. 2:7-12)

 

As you consider the attributes of people you most respect, people you consider among your closest friends, how important are a strong work ethic, self-motivation, self-discipline, self-sustaining and even frugality? And what about compassion, gentleness, tenderness? Now how often do you see those traits all in the same person?  Let's rejoin Paul as he is writing to some friends in a city he had only visited once, and he'd only spent three weeks in that city on that first visit! Three weeks! Yet as we watch Paul dictate this, his first letter to Christian friends in Thessalonica, his choice of words would lead us to think these were life long, dear friends!
