Absent from the Body=Present with the Lord

(7) For we live by believing and not by seeing. (8) Yes, we are fully confident, and we would rather be away from these earthly bodies, for then we will be at home with the Lord.
-- 2 Corinthians 5:7-8 (NLT)

Amen! Come, Lord Jesus! -- Revelation 22:20b (NIV)

“For me to live is Christ and to die is gain.” If God allows me to live it will mean fruitful labor for me and will be more necessary for others in their progress and joy in the faith which I truly love, but if death comes knocking it will only mean that I will depart from this life and will be present with the Lord—which is far better than anything I can comprehend.
