1 Peter 1:8-9

"Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls."

the little/big things that end up mattering.


Got homesick. Finally. It was recently when I was hanging out with some new friends. And it came about for a really ridiculous reason.  It left me fighting back tears over dinner at a restaurant and longing for people who know me well.  I also probably cried in the car when we left, when I knew nobody would notice.  It took almost 6 weeks for me to get homesick. I think that’s pretty good, right??  All this to say that I miss home. I miss my family. I miss my friends. I miss familiar places and foods. 

Oh. The thing that made me homesick: nobody laughed at my jokes.

How ridiculous is that??!
