HOMESICK

When I went off to North Carolina to junior college, I became so homesick, that I wanted to come home in the worst way! I called my Daddy and pleaded with him to let me come home, but to no avail. This 'ole Florida girl just wasn't use to those North Carolina winters or being away from home for so long either.
Daddy, being the wise man that he was, told me to give it one semester, and then we would see how I felt. Of course, by then, I was a cheerleader and on the gymnastics team, and loving Montreat, so going home wasn't even an option for me!
You know, God has placed within us a desire to be at Home with Him in Heaven too! Unfortunately, for us, we can't go Home when we want to, but we can make the best of our lives on this earth while we are here, and
when it's time for us to make the trip, we'll be the first to know!
