“For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent to learn about your faith, for fear that somehow the tempter had tempted you and our labor would be in vain. But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us the good news of your faith and love and reported that you always remember us kindly and long to see us, as we long to see you— for this reason, brothers, in all our distress and affliction we have been comforted about you through your faith. For now we live, if you are standing fast in the Lord. For what thanksgiving can we return to God for you, for all the joy that we feel for your sake before our God,”
‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭3:5-9‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,

This stands out because Paul says, “For now we live, if you are standing fast in the Lord.”  Who is thinking that about us?  Who poured into us and has enabled us to have this relationship with Christ?  Is it a parent, friend, mentor, coach?  Please pray that we and our friends let that person know what their love for us has meant to us. Please pray for Drew Meadow’s son, Mason, as the doctors determine if surgery is needed after a baseball tipped off his bat directly below his eye.
