YOUR FAITH GROWS EXCEEDINGLY
The Apostle Paul was in Thessalonica briefly
But in the short span of time, a church had emerged swiftly.
The believers had turned from idolatry to the Lord;
They had discovered a true faith in a wonderful God.
Paul had to flee from terrible persecution;
He endured bravely this tribulation.
The infant church had to grow strongly;
Their faith in the Lord grew exceedingly.
They were able to cope with their suffering;
They were able to remain true and trusting.
They did not succumb to their persecutors.
They had proven themselves to be warriors.
The key to their strength was that their faith grew;
Faith and grace enabled them to be faithful and true.
This is also our challenge as we face a challenging future;
Let us determine to grow in our faith and our stature.
