1 Thessalonians 3:8

Read in context

1 Thessalonians 3:6–10 · Berean Standard Bible

6 But just now, Timothy has returned from his visit with the good news about your faith, your love, and the fond memories you have preserved, longing to see us just as we long to see you.

7 For this reason, brothers, in all our distress and persecution, we have been reassured about you, because of your faith.

8 For now we can go on living, as long as you are standing firm in the Lord.

9 How can we adequately thank God for you in return for our great joy over you in His presence?

10 Night and day we pray most earnestly that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking from your faith.
