We know that if our earthly house (human body) (habitation of life) is destroyed; we have a building from God. It is an everlasting house in the heavens, not made with human hands. In this we sigh (in silent prayer), longing to be clothed with our habitation that is from heaven. Indeed being clothed we will not be found naked. read more.
While in this tabernacle we groan and sigh with prayer. We are concerned that we would be clothed with what is mortal and be swallowed up (devoured) by this life. He that prepared us for this very purpose is God. He gave the Spirit to us as a guarantee (pledge) (security). We are always confident for we know that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord. We walk by faith, not by sight. We are of good courage, I say, and are willing to be absent from the body, and to be at home with the Lord.
