1 Thessalonians 3

“... And may the Lord make your love for one another and for ALL people grow and overflow...”
​

This verse speaks of how strong the Thessalonians remained in their faith. They stood firm in the Lord, verses 7 & 8. I picture a tree deeply rooted. A woman standing where others may choose to sit. A man protecting when others will not. All for the Lord, His glory and to share Love. Later, in verse thirteen it says, “...May He, as a result, make your hearts strong, blameless, and holy as 
you stand before God our Father when our Lord Jesus comes again with all his holy people.” Amen.

The strong hearts, being blameless and holiness comes from having an OVERFLOWING LOVE FOR ALL PEOPLE. Having an overflowing love for all people comes from remaining strong in our faith and standing firm in the Lord. Remaining strong and standing firm comes from receiving Christ with joy by the Holy Spirit, Who gives full assurance He can be trusted and His message is worth LIVING for.
​

Prayer. Prayer is where we gain strength. Prayer is where we become grounded. Prayer is where we gain love for the Lord and all people. Prayer and RESPONDING to the Holy Spirit is how we love others.
