Changes

The apostle prays for the Thessalonians. And let us desire the same blessings for ourselves and our friends. Peace with [[God]]. This [[peace]] is desired for them always, or in every thing. Peace by all means; in every way; that, as they enjoyed the means of grace, they might use all methods to secure [[peace]]. We need nothing more to make us safe and happy, nor can we desire any thing better for ourselves and our friends, than to have [[God]]'s gracious presence with us and them. No matter where we are, if [[God]] be with us; nor who is absent, if [[God]] be present. It is through the [[grace]] of our [[Lord]] [[Jesus]] [[Christ]], that we hope to have [[peace]] with [[God]], and to enjoy the presence of [[God]]. This [[grace]] is all in all to make us happy; though we wish ever so much to others, there remains enough for ourselves.
