1 Thessalonians 1:2

2 We give thanks to God always for all of you, making mention of you in our prayers;

1 Thessalonians 2:13

13 For this reason we also constantly thank God that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but for what it really is, the word of God, which also performs its work in you who believe.

1 Thessalonians 5:18

18 in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
