2 Corinthians 5:7

5 And God has prepared us for this very purpose and has given us the Spirit as a pledge of what is to come.

6 Therefore we are always confident, although we know that while we are at home in the body, we are away from the Lord.

For we walk by faith, not by sight.

8 We are confident, then, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

9 So we aspire to please Him, whether we are here in this body or away from it.
