Glory in Death

My body will decay someday, like everyone else's.  Some facts of life are hard to accept,  much less to even think of,  just let nature take its course...or lead myself to my end by using my breath in earning the passage to the Door.  Death, scary as a ghost, I would rather not see one but it is the door to enter Our Father's house, where Jesus has prepared a room for each one. The most beautiful thought that someday, I will see my God, His greatness unimaginable, His love so powerful I beat death, I enter the Door, and everyone is there and they are not ghosts but all the love ones including my pets.  Death is sweet.

Philippians 1:20 -24

Christ will be glorified in my body, whether by my life or by my death.  Life to me, of course, is Christ, but then death would bring me something more; but then again, if living in this body means doing work which is having good results - I do not know what I should choose.  I am caught in this dilemma:  I want to be gone and be with Christ, which would be very much the better, but for me to stay alive in this body is a more urgent need for your sake.
