1 Thessalonians 2 1-16; Paul's Ministry in Thessalonica

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

"We were not looking for praise from men, not from you or anyone else." Paul worked for God not himself. He followed Jesus' example of never seeking to glorify his own name. When we go out to proclaim the good news to those around us we are not doing it for ourselves. We don't preach and teach the name of Jesus so we can be famous, so we can have the biggest church, so we can win a contest. We do all of these things for God's glory, that he might be praised more for what he has done for the world. God has done so much for us, and the work we do for him is meant to honor and glorify him for what he has done for us. God bless you.
