"Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God,

who gave us the Spirit as a pledge.

Therefore, being always of good courage,

and knowing that while we are at home in the body

we are absent from the Lord--

for we walk by faith, not by sight--

we are of good courage, I say,


and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.

"Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him."
2 Corinthians 5:9
