Calvin was right when he said that "there is no middle ground between these two: either the world must become worthless to us or hold us bound by intemperate love of it."
This life has value for us only because here "we begin…to taste the sweetness of the divine generosity," but that taste of divine sweetness should prompt us to long all the more for the heavenly life.
Therefore, Calvin concludes, "no one has made progress in the school of Christ who does not joyfully await the day of death and final resurrection."
If you do not "desire to depart and be with Christ," then you are not thinking rightly about your life in Christ!
I would suggest that you will only come to say that "to live is Christ" when you believe from the heart that "to die is gain"...
