And in fact, you do love all of God’s family throughout Macedonia. Yet we urge you, brothers and sisters, to do so more and more, 1 Thessalonians 4:10
Paul acknowledges that the Thessalonian believers are to be commended in the way they are living, and the love they are showing to their community, as I am sure are many of you, but we can, and should be doing more. We must never be complacent with how we live and our relationship with the Lord. Let us pray that we could have the courage and drive to strive to be more and more like Christ each day.
Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
