“I can't understand how much strength it takes to not collapse right now. Imagine being at the height of your career, traveling across the country away from your family, and your son FaceTimes you at 4 in the morning saying, 'I think there are bad people in the house,' and I can't even begin to describe the frustration and emptiness in your heart and soul of not being able to be there to protect your sons,” he said.
“God knows my heart…why play with my heart? I pride myself on being humble and pure but to be honest I don't know who to trust. I am glad my family is good overall. I thank God that I am in a position to go to war and be willing to die for me…please pray for my family,” he wrote.
