butlersbaby02 04-13-2004, 07:40 PM I've been where you're at. My husband was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to 27 2/3 to life for something he didn't even do. We had been married for only 3 months when he was taken but had been together for 5 years. I was unfaithful to him and just recently admitted it to him. But with Jehovah's loving kindness, my husband has forgiven me and our relationship is back on the right road. It's going to be hard but you need to rely on each other for supportt. Don't hide ANYTHING from one another. He was your best friend before you got married, just because he's in aa cell doesn't mean he's not anymore. Spend your days reminding yourself of why you love him and be strong! Don't let anyone try to corrupt you into doing things you don't want. You can make it through. If I can do 27 years, your bid is a piece of cake. You'll be ok. We're here for you.
mustangsmilie 04-13-2004, 07:46 PM Wow girls! You make my 14 months left to wait seems like a piece of cake! I am with you on this and praying for you both as well. I need support myself, but it sure helps to know there are other people dealing with the same stuff!!
God Bless....
MissingScottTN 04-13-2004, 07:54 PM I have about the same amount of time left. You know that you can make a fresh start, youve been through so much. Don't be too hard on yourself ((((hugs)))). You obviously have a faith in God and that will take you very far. With him all things are possible. (Romans 8:28..good verse to remember)
jeffsprincess 04-13-2004, 08:16 PM YOU MADE THE FIRST STEP, YOU CAME CLEAN, REALIZED YOU MADE A MISTAKE AND ARE TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS. I GIVE YOU ALOT OF CREDIT FOR DOING THAT. I KNOW ITS HARD, BUT YOU CAN DO THIS, YOU JUST HAVE TO TAKE IT ONE DAY AT A TIME!
kellil 04-13-2004, 08:50 PM Hang in there. Our God is forgiving and just knowing where you want to be is a huge step in the right direction. Remember, we are all sinners and we all fall short of the Glory.
God loves you and so do we!!!!
Kelli

Yes go to AA or NA and work your program! You have somewhere along the way surrendered yourself to the wrong entity. You do have control over your life! Get back on track. Get the negative influences away from you, get help and go to church! you can go it girl! You did it beforeyou can do it again! HugS!
bunnyrun5 04-14-2004, 11:44 AM :hee: Here's a (((((((HUG)))))) Terina I am so proud of you for being honest with your husband. Confession is good for the soul. Now try to stay focused, hang out with people who are doing positive things such as staying sober. Maybe going to some meetings will help you get grounded. That should be first. As for the cheating thingy, just like Kellil said, "Our God is a forgiving God" He is very aware of what's in our hearts. Lean on Him for help in staying faithful to the Hubbie and don't beat yourself up. Goodluck and many blessing.
rottn 04-14-2004, 01:34 PM Your being honest and even if you are judging yourself, I give you kudos. Alot of people wouldn't take the step to come clean, but being a faithful follower of the BIG BOOK, that's the first step. Just following your heart and do what is right and you'll be back on top in no time. Good luck to you and I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
