Sent my missing husband a text. Tell me what you think?

After contemplating my own behavior in my "drama", I have realized many things about me. I have been afraid to truly allow myself to love. And in all my pretense of being "strong" and "above" it all, I have realized that I am truly in love with my husband. I didn't know this until God showed me.

Will you read the text message I wrote to my husband and tell me what you think?

"B-----, I am not the strong person I pretend to be. I am overwhelmed with grief and I am overwhelmed with not knowing what to do. You were right, I have guarded myself so much out of fear that people will find out that I am just a scared little girl. I push out of fear. God is doing a work in me, God has shown me so much. Believe the best in me.....as I do you. We can make it through this. I have realized how much in love with you that I am. I am at peace with it. I have never known such a powerful love before. I feel you even though you are far away. This love made me afraid and I didn't trust it. I needed this time apart to find me, again. And to realize how much I truly love you. God knows my heart. I come to you with humility and to ask for a real chance at our marriage, when you are ready. This is the woman you fell in love with....your friend. I am with you, as you are with me. God has truly blessed my soul....with you, my husband. I value our marriage and the vows we said. I value you, the man. I have been so wrong. Pray and let God show you. Read your Bible to find answers."

I can not be objective enough to know how this text message sounds. Will you help me. by giving me an honest, yet thoughtful opinion? I am coming to terms with many things about what happened to cause my husband pain. I was one of those things. I am trying to save my marriage. What I had with my husband is so rare.....I don't know what to do.

Thank you ahead of time for your compassion.

    It sounded very honest and open... I am not sure how religious he is, but some people don't like to hear about God- (i only say this because there are very few things God accepts as reason tp leave your spouse and if he left you he might not be a believer)

    As a man, I felt very moved by your honesty. Length of what you are trying to convey should not matter, except to those who can not read past 3 sentences. You are only trying to share yourself, honestly, with your husband. And it appears it may be the first time that you are being truly honest with him. For that you should be proud. If I had received this message, I would be rethinking my choices and look into myself for some answers and hold myself accountable for the pain I was causing my wife. And God is NOT a third wheel or a crutch in a marriage. God is supposed to be the foundation of all enduring and loving marriages......if people would read their Bibles, they would know this and possibly have decent marriages themselves, instead of being cynical and judgmental. One piece of advice, I do agree that you need to move forward with your life, regardless of what happens. It is one thing to wait around for your husband to play with your life, while he waits for his mother to pass on. It is another for you to allow him to control your life, from afar. If your husband remembers all that you two shared.....and he will, he will be back. Trust in that. But live your life to the fullest until that day comes. Who knows? Your feelings may change by then.
