cause the long fall back to earth is the hardest part

Dearest Jesus, when do I get to go home? I want to be done here. I'm not depressed or discouraged, and I know you've provided everything necessary to do Your work. I just want to be with You. The sooner, the better... however, not my will, but Yours be done :-/
For indeed in this house we groan, longing to be clothed with our dwelling from heaven, inasmuch as we, having put it on, will not be found. For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened, because we do not want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that what is mortal will be swallowed up by life. Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave to us the Spirit as a pledge. Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord -- for we walk by faith, not by sight -- we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him. (2 Corinthians 5:2-9)
Seriously, Lord -- whenever You're ready for me.
