| The Homesick Heart | Longing for Spiritual Intimacy
By Jean Fleming
We all experience deep, voiceless longing that we cannot articulate. But where do such yearnings come from and what do they mean?
In The Homesick Heart, Jean Fleming explores these longings and shows us that they are our instinctive response to God's own yearning. "This call from God touches our soul and the soul rises up in response," she explains. Because these touches to the soul are so brief and gentle, we often misunderstand them and are left with only a vague sense of sorrow and homesickness, a desire for a true Home we have never seen. We are left with hearts as homesick for God as God is homesick for us.
Through the reflections in The Homesick Heart, you will find a God who longs to be close to you not out of need but out of an immeasurable love, and a God who sends you fleeting glimpses of eternity so that you might also yearn to be with Him.
