Homesick for Heaven

It seems like the longer it has been since Addison went home to be with Jesus...the more and more "homesick" for heaven I get. I am longing to see Jesus now more than ever before. I long to see Him face to face and to see my baby girl again. I wish so badly that she could be here, and that this never happened...but I know that's not what God wanted for us. I'm learning so much through this difficult time, but there are days that I just wish the Lord could have taught me in a different way that's less painful. I know that HE loves me and has a plan for my life..He has already shown Himself faithful in the plans that He has already unveiled for me,and I just can't wait to see what else He will do with me. He's not finished with me yet...He's not finished with me yet..and the further on I go..I've seen enough to know that I'm not here for nothing. He's on to something good...something that I can't see,understand or plan better than what He's got planned for me. I have the Mercy Me song "Homesick" in me head...and it's really expressing my heart right now...

~Homesick~ -Mercy Me-
You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times
And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you
But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry
Is how long must I wait to be with you

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways
The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know
But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same
Cause I'm still here so far away from home

I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
I've never been more homesick than now

In Christ, there are no goodbye
And in Christ, there is no end
So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have
To see you again
To see you again

And I close my eyes and I see your face
If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place
Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow
Won't you give me strength to make it through somehow

I've never been more homesick than now

I can't wait to see my baby girl again someday..but until that day comes..I will live to know Christ here on the earth..and to serve Him daily even though it's really hard. I know He's not finished with me yet...
