1 Thessalonians 2:17-20 - Paul's Desire To Revisit The Thessalonians
17 But we, brethren, having been for a short time separated from you in bodily presence, though not in heart, endeavoured all the more earnestly, with intense longing, to see you face to face. 18 On this account we wanted to come to you--at least I Paul wanted again and again to do so--but Satan hindered us. 19 For what is our hope or joy, or the crown of which we boast? Is it not you yourselves in the presence of our Lord Jesus at His Coming? 20 Yes, you are our glory and our joy.
