1 Thessalonians 1:3

what are the three greatest things in the World?
1.  The Gift of a Work of Faith
work of faith

your faith is your vocation

your job is your other vocation

what are the three greatest things in the World?
2.  The Gift of a Labor of Love
 labor of love

love as action

the kind of hard labor and toil that produces fatigue and even exhaustion

what are the three greatest things in the World?
3.  The Gift of a Steadfast Hope  
steadfastness of hope

the patience of hope
hope is where your heart is
