Why is being with the Lord in heaven important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Being with the Lord in heaven signifies complete joy and eternal fellowship with Him.

For Christians, the importance of being with the Lord in heaven lies in the joy and peace it brings. In Psalm 16:11, we read, 'In thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand are pleasures forevermore.' This fullness of joy comes from our unobstructed fellowship with God, free from sin and sorrow. Heaven represents the culmination of God's promises, where believers will experience perfect communion with Christ, devoid of doubts, pain, and weariness.
