We are called to live by faith, entrusting every aspect of our existence, including our health and lifespan, to God's sovereign will. James 4:15 (NKJV) advises, "Instead you ought to say, 'If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.'" By living a life of faith, we acknowledge that our earthly journey is part of a divine plan to serve His purposes and glorify His name.

It's about cherishing each moment, using our gifts to better those around us, and maintaining a spirit of gratitude and trust, regardless of our physical condition. By doing so, we experience the abundance of walking in God's ways.

Being 'peacefully promoted to heaven' reflects a serene transition from this life to the next, culminating in a life well-lived in faith. It is the ultimate homecoming for a believer, a transition filled with hope and joy, free from fear or regret.
