There will come a time

when I will depart from this world in God's timing.

We who have been offered as sacrifices to God

will one day leave this world in God's time.

As that time approaches, may we, like the Apostle Paul,

 be able to say to our beloved brothers and sisters,

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished all, I have kept the faith.

Now all that remains is to receive the crown of righteousness”

(2 Timothy 4:6-8).
