'Own' in the Bible
although we could have imposed our weight as apostles of Christ; instead we became little children among you. Like a nursing mother caring for her own children,
with such affection for you we were happy to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us.
As you know, we treated each one of you as a father treats his own children,
exhorting and encouraging you and insisting that you live in a way worthy of God who calls you to his own kingdom and his glory.
For you became imitators, brothers and sisters, of God's churches in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, because you too suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they in fact did from the Jews,
that each of you know how to possess his own body in holiness and honor,
to aspire to lead a quiet life, to attend to your own business, and to work with your hands, as we commanded you.
