May be blameless and holy in the presence of our God

 Thessalonians 2:17-3:13
The people in Thessalonian church are Paul's glory and joy. For Paul taught them the gospel.
Paul caring about them, but he could not go to them, so he sent Timothy to strengthen and encourage them in their faith. So that no one would be unsettled by these trials. Paul was afraid that in some way the tempter might have tempted them and our efforts might have been useless for his persecution.
Timothy brought good news about their faith and love, therefore in all our distress and persecution we were encouraged about you because of your faith.
Night and day we pray most earnestly that we may see you again and supply what is lacking in your faith. -- this is Paul's caring and praying.
May he strengthen your hearts so that you will be blameless and holy in the presence of our God and Father when our Lord Jesus come with all his holy ones.
Why?
Paul is as close to his convert a parent to child. No matter how far away, they are deep in his heart and thoughts. The knowledge that they are in trouble fills him with unbearable anxiety.
Paul's happiness - depends on their continuance and progress in the faith.
Satan's hindered : It is in the enemy's interests to keep the missionary and his converts apart.
Paul is an example of shepherd for all Christian to care their church and health of the home of God.
Caring, Praying and sharing are the essential factor for church, just as Pastor said yesterday in Bethel Baptist Church.
How?
Do my best to love God and follow his commands, learn the example of Paul to caring, praying and sharing among people.
