It's ok to miss some things

There are days when seeing pictures & hearing about family spending time together is a challenge for us (my wife, our children & I.) There are days when you really, really miss them.

I know that we all have life challenges that are different, but being away from family for years at a time some days is a real challenge.

Peter said to Jesus, “Look, we have left everything and followed you.”
Jesus said, “I tell you the truth, all those who have left houses,

brothers, sisters, mother, father, children, or farms for me 

and for the Good News will get more than they left. Here in 

this world they will have a hundred times more homes, brothers, 

sisters, mothers, children, and fields. And with those things, 

they will also suffer for their belief. But in this age they will have 

life forever.

 Mark 10:28-30 NCV
