Denied
by adustyframe ~ January 19th, 2008I wrote last fall about Lee filing for early release. We knew it was a long shot but figured that he should take every opportunity.
He got the reply from the judge this week.
Early release has been denied.
We didn’t expect it. We knew it probably would not happen.
It still hurts and disappoints though.
Lee said that it is truly one more reminder to him to never ever again allow himself to be in trouble with the law. That is of course a good thing.

Oh Lizzie, I am very sorry to hear it was denied. Of course you would be disappointed. I hope and pray the remaining months pass by quickly for all of you!
Thank you, Jenn

I’m so sorry, Lizzie. May God turn the disappointment into blessing. Hugs. Hugs.
Thank you:)

How long does he still have to be in there?
I suggest that after a little while, write again. Remember that story in the Bible about the widow always knocking at the judges’ door?
(((HUGS)))

Liza, that is a great story! Unfortunately that’s it. He can’t write again.

I’m truly sorry to hear that. I’ll continue that the Lord upholds you three.
Thank you, Joy. We appreciate your prayers:)!

Ouch. I’m sorry you have to hurt. I pray it will heal quickly.
Thanks, Janean. This stinks but it’s not as bad as some things we’ve had to deal with.

Thank you, Robin.

Sigh.
That’s tough. I cannot imagine how hard it is to hear news like that.
You are loved…
Thank you and thank you for letting me know you care. That really helps us a lot.

I am so sorry. Will pray you and your family have continued focus on God and feel His presence and guidance in this answer.
Thank you, Heidi. Everyone’s prayers help us so much.

Dear Lizzie, Argh. I’m sorry too. I’m going to start praying that God will prepare you for when he comes home though. Based on my experiences this week with having my husband home 80% more – it will be an adjustment process! God bless you Lizzie and your Jonah in the whale’s belly. Love, Susan
Thank you , Susan. I appreciate your prayers very much.

It’s soooo hard to want for something and to believe that it would be a good thing and then to have God not agree on the timing. I’m so sorry.
Do you have an idea of how much longer Lee has away from you? If that’s too personal, I understand.
