Philippians 1:23-26

23For I am in a strait between the two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: 24Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. 25And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith; 26That your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again.
