Bill and Tom - You are in my thoughts and prayers. This is going to be yet a new birth for both of you (and all of us when the time comes). May God give you peace and comfort during this time.

Some may think this an inappropriate reply, but I envy you. Personally I want to go home. I'm constantly sick, tired, and in pain from my neck to my feet. I'm retired and bored silly.
If you are at peace with the Lord, then the step from here is to go home to everlasting peace. I'm just homesick. -
See you later

Though I am not posting much anymore on here, please know that I will continue to pray for you and Tom.
My you rejoice in the soon coming of your reunion with your savior and God, and be challanged to pray ever more feverently for those of us awaiting that triumphant day. -

Thanks for the good thoughts. No fear or apprehension here. I think I know how a seed feels if that is possible, also the word emminant takes on new light. My family is Christian so we are well comforted.
Jon-Marc sounds like you are homesick brother. Don't blame ya one teeny bit. :godisgood: -

POB, I never know quite what to say in these situations, because on one hand I’m sorry you’re leaving us and on the other, like some have already mentioned, I am glad for you and even feeling a bit envious. One thing I would like to say, which I don’t know if I ever told you and that really sticks out in my mind about some of your writings here is how deeply you love your wife and how eloquently you have expressed that. It has been a blessing for me to read those words. My thoughts and prayers will be for comfort for you and your family during these trying times. God bless you all. .

When I am weary
The Lord bless you Bill, may He cause His light to shine on you.
Resurrection day, whoopee!
I will be glad when all this over too. But till then, keep on soldiering.
Praise God.

Found this in searching for material for next weeks SS lesson, and thought about the comments on this thread.
FTR, I also am very ambivalent re: my own demise, primarily because if I go in the very near future I'll not only leave a wife & 2 kids, BUT a 98 YO mother.
Except for this, I'm ready and a little bit anxious - specially as I see the path our country is taking; BUT, it's in His hands!!
Bill, with His peace is in your heart, you are to be envied rather than pitied.
Folks who do not have His peace have to be absolutely miserable!!

My view on death is that the sooner it happens the better. I'd prefer to be taken away in what is commonly called the "rapture".

Bill,
I know you are at peace in His love. At least you won't have to fight with the likes of us anymore. We'll miss ya! Remember that nothing can happen till the Lord says it can. I am sure the final touches on your mansion are being attended to . Will be praying for you!
