I have been in a place where in some since I have had to look at death and how fleeting our life is. And in it I have looked at what I really want. And this I know - there is nothing I want more than to be with my Beloved. I long to be with the Lord. And in life I want to be poured out as an offering for Him.

"But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I recieved from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God."

Father, make this true in me.
