1 Thessalonians 2:17-20 - Paul's Desire To Revisit The Thessalonians
17 But, my brothers, when we were taken away from you for an hour's time (in presence, not in heart), more abundantly we were eager with much desire to see your face. 18 Therefore we desired to come to you, truly I, Paul, both once and twice; but Satan hindered us. 19 For what is our hope or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are you not even to be in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming? 20 For you are our glory and joy.
