I'm so ready to go to our real home in Heaven and wondered how many others feel the same way. Thought this might be a good thread so others could express themselves on this and might be comforted to know others are having the same feelings.
I feel homesick for a place I can only imagine. And I'm not talking about the grandeur of Heaven, but the love and peace that is waiting there for us. That is what I long for. I've had a lack of interest in my everyday chores and hobbies for quite some time, but it has gotten MUCH more so, and the turning point seems to have been the Israel evacuation. That whole thing was like a nightmare and I just wanted to wake up and realize it was a bad dream, but of course that is not the case. I've been tired and restless at the same time. Nothing satisfies. It's also like being on a long trip somewhere and just wanting to go home and sleep in my own bed for a change. It's weird for me to be this down, I feel like Billy Crystal in one of his older movies, when he couldn't find his smile. Any decision, even the small ones, I have to make, seems like I just second guess it, repeatedly. The one thing I am sure about, is the great need to see His face.That is what will take the emptiness, confusion and sadness away. This surely sounds like rambling but I was trying to portray my feelings as best as I could.
I can almost hear the Holy Spirit whispering "Not much further, we're almost there" like a parent to a child after a long long car trip.
