1 Thessalonians 2:7b-8 -The family of believers Part 1

Just as a nursing mother cares for her children, so we cared for you. Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well.

Today and for the next two days I am focusing on 1 Thessalonians 2:7b-12. In this passage Paul is discussing how the gospel was shared with the people of Thessalonica. He compares this process to a family. The verse above describes the mother and how she cares for her children, just as those sharing Christ cared for the people of Thessalonica and became involved in their lives.

Lord, thank you for giving us examples of how to share the gospel. Please help us to not be afraid to get involved in peoples lives and show them we care. Amen.
