1 Thessalonians 2:17-20 - Paul's Desire To Revisit The Thessalonians
17 And we, brethren, having been separated from you for a due measure of time, in face, not in heart, we were the more excessively zealous to see your face with much eager desire. 18 Wherefore we would have come to you, I Paul, truly also once and twice; and the adversary hindered us. 19 For what our hope, or joy, or crown of boasting? Are not also ye before our Lord Jesus Christ in his arrival? 20 For ye are our glory and joy.
