But Timothy has just now come to us from you and has brought good news about your faith and love. He has told us that you always have pleasant memories of us and that you long to see us, just as we also long to see you.
1 Thessalonians 3:6 NIV
http://bible.com/111/1th.3.6.NIV
This chapter tells us a lot about Paul's relationship to the Thessalonians, how he loved them, was worried about them and missed them.
It also tells us when Paul wrote the letter. In Acts 18:5 Timothy returns to Paul after Paul was alone in Athens. That corresponds to the statements above.
