1 Thessalonians 2:7-9

International Children’s Bible

⁷ But we were very gentle with you.^[a] We were like a mother caring for her little children. ⁸ Because we loved you, we were happy to share God’s Good News with you. But not only that, we were also happy to share even our own lives with you. ⁹ Brothers, I know that you remember how hard we worked. We worked night and day so that we would not burden any of you while we preached God’s Good News to you.
