2 Corinthians 5:6-8; Philippians 1:21; Philippians 1:23

2 Corinthians 5:6-8

6 So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord,

7 for we walk by faith, not by sight.

8 Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

Philippians 1:21

21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Philippians 1:23

23 I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better.
