"the world is but a ship, and not thy home"

I have a picture of Jesus in my 'prayer corner' and I think it's so lovely. Sometimes I wonder how Jesus really looks like..I think when we'll see Him, we would just be completely overwhelmed by His love and majesty and beauty. I imagine that there will be so much love in His eyes. St Faustina said in her Diary:

"During meditation, the Lord gave me knowledge of the joy of heaven and of the saints on our arrival there; they love God as the sole object of their love, but they also have a tender and heartfelt love for us. It is from the face of God that this joy flows out upon all, because we see Him face to face. His face is so sweet that the soul falls anew into ecstasy. (1592)

wow!! I long so much just to see Him my dear Jesus. I know He's always with me and when I'll finally receive the Eucharist He'll be present with me in such an intimate way; but sometimes I just feel SO lonely and homesick for heaven..like last night.. I want to go Home someday and be forever in His sweet loving embrace. i hope that the Eucharist would be this embrace for me here on earth. well.. "the cross comes before the crown", and I pray that I'll bear my cross for Jesus as He bore His for me, and share in His suffering too here on earth, learn to be obedient to His will, and make the best of the grace He's giving me. But just to think, in Heaven we would be with our Jesus FOREVER, I mean there will be no end, we would never have to leave Him!! Isn't that so amazing? I can't imagine eternity. And we would be able to love Him forever. wow.. I never want to stop loving Him.
