But thank God this is not the end. Many of the good things God has promised we do experience here and now, but some await eternity when God restores all things (see 1 Corinthians 2:9). God built us for eternity, and until then there will always be a part of our soul that is unfilled, longing, needy. Only in eternity will we experience enough—of joy, love, healing, peace, fulfillment or anything else we long for.
God built your heart to need Himself and to need eternity. Learn to hold that longing tenderly, as something priceless. And be assured that when you get there, you will be fully satisfied, fully healed, and know love beyond anything you can now imagine.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
