1 Thessalonians 2:17-19

And as for us, brothers, when we were deprived of your company for a short time — in person, but not in thought — we missed you and tried hard to come and see you.

We wanted so much to come to you — I, Sha’ul, tried more than once — but the Adversary stopped us.

For when our Lord Yeshua returns, what will be our hope, our joy, our crown to boast about? Won’t it be you?
