2 Cor. 5

“So we make it our goal to please him,” is the advice Paul gives to the Corinthian believers. This regarding was to be their modus operandi … those wishing to leave this life and graduate to the next where they would have their eternal body.

I have a dad in this category. He’s 97 and is READY to go. At a recent Dr.’s visit upon being told his blood pressure was 120/70 and that he would probably live longer, Dad said, “Oh, no.” Meanwhile, he really enjoys Jimmy Swaggart’s preaching and music, and he likes to order food through GrubHub. But to me and my siblings, we can testify that our dad has lived his entire life to please God. This has been a revered role model for me and many others.

Thanks Dad, for the inspiration.
