Worship into the Week-
1 Thessalonians 1:1-10
The Thessalonians' Faith and Example
I read this book in the New Testament
differently after my visits to the city of Thessaloniki.
When looking at this section of Scripture,
I am picturing the coastline
and seeing the blue waters in my mind.
Somehow that makes the people that
Paul is writing about become "real people."
They worked in faith and labored
in love with steadfast hope.
They were loved by God and chosen by Him.
The Gospel came to them not only in word
but also in power and in the Holy Spirit
and with full conviction.
They were good imitators and moved
with the joy of the Holy Spirit,
so that they were great examples to all
in Macedonia and Achaia.
Their stories rung out long before social media.
They turned from idols to worship
of the living and true God.
That's an example and a reminder
for us living today in 2023.
