Back in January a terrible thing happened in our family that I was not able to stop. I had been drinking and was passed out. Because of that, I have lost everything. My daughter, we've moved, my husband was arrested and has charges pending. He lost his job because of his legal issues, we have lost our cars. We now only have my monthly disability check to live on. It is not enough to make ends meet with our current bills. We have a lot of back bills and bad checks that need taken care of as after the incident we lived beyond our means and were depressed enough not to care. My husbands preliminary hearing is October 2nd. Then we will go to trial. It is possible that he may be sentenced to up to 13 years in jail. I try to stay strong and know that God's hand is in it somewhere. I cannot see or feel that hand and am loosing hope.

I've been there before, don't worry God is still in control. It may seem like things are going horrible for Your family but God is putting each member perfectly in place to do His will. Each of You will witness Gods glory for Yourselves, and then witness to others.
Pray to God to help You keep control of situations like drinking. Personaly once I stopped drinking, My deppression was less frequent, and My flesh had less chances to get in trouble.
God is a Father, and He never stops teaching us, molding us to his image. Sometimes He may have to teach us by taking away our toys like cars, or sending us to our room like a prison cell, but He is always there for us watching , waiting with love as we slowly learn each lesson.
