Hope deferred - a Christian perspective
Have you ever had your hope deferred? Proverbs tells us that when our hope is deferred it makes our very heart sick. However, when a longing is fulfilled, we are filled with life.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Gone So Long, But Home At Last - #4306
And deep down inside the soul of each of us is a longing for home that is hard to explain and even harder to satisfy. There's this spiritual homesickness - you can call it restlessness or incompleteness or just the absence of inner peace. Some who feel like they've never had a home think that they would have peace if they could find a home. But then those who've had a fair amount of love and acceptance are strangely homesick in their soul, too.
