Nickosha I think the key word that ILoveGod123 is trying to convey is "Now". I think a lot of us at times feels like if it were up to us we would leave this earthly suffering to be in paradise with The Lord instantly. That's not His plan though and we don't always see what it is as we're going along through life.
Sometimes we can't see the star in the east to head towards like the wise men did so we feel like we're just going through the darkness kind of lost. Maybe it's because we're suffering physical infirmities, or emotional turmoil because of relationships with family or friends, financial difficulties. As much as some of us wanna pretend otherwise, knowing God's Grace doesn't make life easy.
