9 We can never thank God enough for all the joy you give us as we rejoice in God’s presence.
10 We pray very hard night and day that we may see you again so that we can supply whatever you still need for your faith.
11 We pray that God our Father and the Lord Jesus will guide us to you.
12 We also pray that the Lord will greatly increase your love for each other and for everyone else, just as we love you.
13 Then he will strengthen you to be holy. Then you will be blameless in the presence of our God and Father when our Lord Jesus comes with all God’s holy people.
