By faith, we realize that we must be ready to receive it in all its fullness.
When the 10 virgins go to meet the bridegroom, some come ready with extra oil, and some don't. When the bridegroom comes, the 5 without extra have to get more, and because they weren't poised and ready, they don't enter the wedding feast when the groom arrives.
By faith, we are called to live with wisdom so that we are ready to meet God at the end of our lives by living now in a way that is focused on God.
Furthermore, let us live in hope that God has promised that for those who remain faithful to Him will receive the reward of abiding with Him always. Let us comfort one another with these words and be inspired to embrace now the presence of the God Who promises us union with Him in Heaven in Eternity.
