Twenty years ago my husband lost his job, and we went through a time of great need. We had three children: a two-year-old girl, a one-year-old girl, and a newborn baby boy.

What I wanted most in life was to have a wife who would be God’s will for me. But God didn’t give me the person [or, woman] that I chose, and I had to watch her be with another guy.... Some time after that, I started living in sin with a woman whom I felt [...]
