# May our God ... our Lord Jesus

Paul includes the Thessalonian believers with his ministry team. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-exclusive]])

# May our God

"We pray that our God"

# direct our way to you

Paul speaks as if he wants God to show him and his companions the route to take to visit the Thessalonian Christians. He means that he wants God to make it possible for them to do so. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])

# direct our way to you

The word "our" refers to Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy but not the Thessalonian believers. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-exclusive]])

# Father himself

Here "himself" refers back to "Father" for emphasis. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rpronouns]])
