We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers, 3 remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father. 1 Thessalonians 1: 2-3
In a world where the news for today seems rather bad, we look to God in gratitude for each other. Jesus our Lord basically told the disciples on Mount Olivet that the things they heard, and now we hear, in the news are going to happen many times. Wars, rumors of war, earthquakes in various places...yup, sounds quite like the news for this morning. This tells me that God the Father knows exactly what is going on today and we continue to wait on Him. We can take the bad news because of the Good News of Jesus Christ! We are the manservants and maidservants of our Lord Jesus awaiting His return at the time God our Father has set for this great event. Perhaps it looks a bit darker outside because our Lord is about to do the unveiling for us.
Have faith in our Lord Jesus, and give thanks to Him for each other this morning!
