Paul gives a very strong blessing to the Thessalonian church at the end of 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17, 16 May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God the Father, who loved us by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, 17 encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word. There is no sweeter blessing and encouragement than what comes from the Lord Jesus Christ and God Himself. While many of us seek the encouragement and acceptance of others, it does not match or compare to what God is capable of giving to us through the Holy Spirit. When the rest of the world seems to not be interested, remember that God loves us more than we could ever imagine.
