Oh my gosh! I can't even begin to imagine what your fiance went through in her life and with this horror. I hope this person who did this gets everything he deserves and more! That's the least he deserves. Her uncle, he deserves to be punished too, although depending on her age, it may be to late. Statute of limitations and all that.
I will pray for her tonight when I go to bed and I will remember her in my prayers for as long as she needs them. She must be a very special lady for you to go through all this with her. I don't know to many guys who would. You must also be a very great guy. I hope things go well for both of you. I know God is watching out for both of you.

Thank you for assuring us that you can do what seems to us as impossible. I ask that you heal AH1's fiancée of all reamining emotional and mental scars as you rescue her from all harm. Please give AH1 the mind of Jesus Christ, His wisdom and love. Please bless AH1 financially as well according to what you see is best. Cause all to work out just fine. I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

I am very thankful for all the prayers and kind words. I don't know what to say or how to thank you enough.
This has been not only overwhelming for my fiance, but for me too.
I am trying hard to take this all to Jesus and let him handle everything. I dont know what to say, think or do some days, and I don't know how much or how little to say to my fiance as well with the current troubles she is facing, and that she also doesn't want to discuss "religion" or anything about God. (Which really confuses me). I'm trying to let the Love of Jesus Christ shine through in my actions - since my fiance doesn't want any discussion of God or Jesus.
The fact that my fiance has a roommate, and some family members that have lead her to believe that wiccan practices/lifestyle is supposed to be acceptable -- bothers me and I just don't want to get into an argument with her about it. I read in God's Holy Word that anything of the occult is a sin. (Which 'wiccan' practises are of the occult)
I know I cant change her and it's simply not my place to do it, nor would I want to. BUT.. I am asking for fervent prayers that the Holy Spirit will convict her and touch her heart to turn from these things. Some things she has mentioned to me about her or her friend and the little rituals that are being observed or participated in - sound awfully close to witchcraft and I dont want to be a part of that, but I don't want to offend her or drive her further away from a relationship with Jesus Christ. (She told me she asked Jesus into her heart at 8 or 9 years old - but has never read the Bible or looked into anything to do with knowing more about Jesus and learning Gods Holy Word)
I am in a very difficult situation with ALL of this. It gets overwhelming at times. I have had some people try telling me I should just walk away from it all.
I love this young lady and I am committed to her. God didn't give up on me and I don't believe it is in my best interest to give up on her either. That might be how others do things -- but it's just not me!
Thank you again for the prayers and kind words by those of you who have been praying for my fiance, our families and me too during this difficult time.

Father, each and every time I read through the prayer requests of AH1, I feel overwhelmed. Please send people his way that can help him through all this. Although his main concern is her, he needs uplifting also. He is feeling so helpless right now. It must be so difficult to not live close to his fiance. Please hear the prayers of concern he has for his fiance. Help him to be strong as he tries to reach out to her. Give him the words that he should say to help her. Use him, Lord, to help her find her way to You. Through the prompting of Your Holy Spirit, I pray that she be delivered from her pain and turn to You. Bind up whatever holds her from surrending fully to You. Oh, how I pray for this young woman to know You. She has survived this terrible ordeal because you have plans and a purpose for her. I ask this prayer believing that with You, all things are possible. In the name of my Lord Jesus, I pray. Amen

It seems that daily... things go from bad to worse with my fiance.
She's been keeping herself 'busy'. I have no problem with things that she is legitimately doing to stay busy and occupy her time. BUT... She admitted the other day that she has been "imposing self-restricted distance" on us.
Today I was busy doing things, but tried very early this morning to talk to her. I tried calling, messaging, etc. and she didn't bother to contact me.
Even went so far as to lie to me and tell me that she didn't get my voice mail, and that she said her roommate told me she was sleeping - which was another lie. I haven't gotten any messages from the roommate in days. The messages i have gotten have been short and abrupt by the roommate - especially since she has the so-called 'counselor' boyfriend who i see as being very insecure and not wanting me to talk to her. He's afraid of me being close with either one of the ladies.
Today when I told my fiance in an instant message about her being distant and not making time for me, and I expressed that I was feeling left out and not feeling like I was much of a priority -- she tells me in a very snotty way "BYE!" and "Sorry to have bothered you" and just up and left from messaging me.
She's been keeping me at a distance, been partying some and taking care of herself (well, and abusing herself too by partying, not eating well and other things) and she claims to love me most days, but I'm so frustrated with everything and then trying to communicate with her and being dumped today (basically) -- it's just not right. I'd never do that to her (and she KNOWS that) and I'm being taken advantage of and I am deeply hurt. She is a very stubborn and headstrong woman and she knows she hurts me often with the things she says and does -- but still doesn't really seem to care to resolve anything. I either put up with it -- or it's "GOODBYE" -- just like today. She creates fights with me and every few days lately tries walking away and telling me its over, or tries to get me to do it.
So nice that I have been here for her - thru thick and thin (for a long time) and now she wants to walk away and throw in the towel b/c I try telling her that I'm having a hard time with the distance she imposes on me and that I'm feeling less than second rate with everyone and everything having priority in her life.
I'm only human. I let her vent, yell, scream and unload on me. Is it right that I play the role of the doormat? That I try expressing myself in a calm manner and get treated like dirt? Wondering... How much more of this can I take? My own family has seen the hell I go through every day. Is this God's way of telling me it's over?????
It all sickens me to see her going through this, but then pushing away the one man that loves her, respects her and will stand beside her and treating me poorly. The enemy continues to work overtime! I just don't know how much more I can take. I love her dearly -- but the enemy doesn't want to give her up without a fight. She sure seems to not even care very much many days. That just hurts and cuts me deeply.
Please, keep praying for her, for me, for us and for God's guidance. I don't know what to say or do anymore.

Father,
We come to you because we realize that you know what is best. Please help Matt. Give him the very faith of Jesus Christ and comfort him. Help his fiancée according to your over riding wisdom and help us all to accept your timing. Please have mercy on Matt and shower him with your solutions in ways that will give him peace. I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Thank you peacofgod for your kind words and prayers as always. it means so much. my name is not matt however. I just don't feel comfortable using my actual name (for now perhaps), so I will leave it as AH1, which is my user name.
**** I was just notified that my fiance's roommate was involved in a bad accident. She left home today very angry about something. (Angry with her B/F am told) Police believe she was driving about 85 MPH around a curve and lost control rolling down a hill and coming to rest between 2 trees! I pray she is doing okay and that God would use even this situation to get her attention and that of her family and my fiance too. Pray they will all see the hand of God at work that is keeping her alive and spared her life! I pray for their salvation. ****

Oops, sorry. I don't know why I used, "Matt". I have to keep a close watch on this brain of mine.

Father,
Please over shadow with your will AH1's fiancée, her roommate and anyone else who might influence her. Draw them all to you in wondrous ways that will glorify you while helping AH1's fiancée. I ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.

Just an FYI... My fiance's roommate was released from the hospital today. She had a concussion and some serious bruising, (Possible bruised kidney or liver) and contusions.
I've seen the pictures of the truck. She is SO lucky to be alive. I told my fiance that God was watching over her and had His angels surrounding her. Sadly, I don't think this is a wake-up call for either one of them. I have been praying that it would be.
It took quite a while for the crew to extricate her from the wreckage. She has a bit of a temper and I am sure she was speeding from what law enforcement has said.
I hope that God will touch their hearts and minds and that the Holy Spirit convicts them and draws then to Him.
Thank you again to the handful of kind souls who have been praying and posting prayers and words of encouragement.
God bless you.

The nightmares for my fiancee are still intense and happen nightly. It is taking a toll on her, and on me too. I think the nightmares are adding to her depression and more.
It's all affecting her so much. I am seeing a pattern - that when things are going smoothly between us, she can't handle it and creates some sort of drama. I think it's to subconsciously validate arguments and that she sees herself as a 'bad person' inside.
I am having a hard time with her pulling away or pushing me away. We go a day or so with things being wonderful - then she seems to create drama in a short period of time.
I continue to pray that she cries out to God, & seeks Him as Lord and Savior and gives it all to the Him.
The stress on me not being able to be with her and having so much distance between where we both live -- it's very hard to deal with.
For those of you who are praying - I thank you with all of my heart. I guess I'm not sure why more people aren't praying - but God knows hearts, minds and intentions. I can say this to those who find my post hard to read... Just try to imagine what terror that my fiancee went through. Locked in a house for 6 days and nights with a psychopath who told her he was going to kill her - and did unspeakable things that are too horrible to even comprehend. I've worked with rape victims many times before. This has to be one of the worst & most violent cases I've ever encountered.

Thank you for your prayers! I guess human nature sometimes leads us to believe.. what we see. I see many 'hits' on the post, but not so many people posting here on my prayer request. I guess that yet again it's the unseen that holds true.
Here's something that EVERYONE can pray for my fiancee, for her roommate, their families and my family and me too... PRAY THIS PLEASE:
Pray: Colossians 1:9-14! This is a very powerful prayer. I've heard a message on it from Dr. Charles Stanley. It is a very powerful prayer and effective for EVERYONE. Also pray for a softening of heart and mind for my fiancee and her roommate and their families -- so that they will be open to the leading of the Holy Spirit and come to know Him as Lord and Savior.
I want to serve the Lord Jesus with my fiancee and as we become husband and wife. I believe with all my heart -- if she turns everything over to God Almighty, and asks Jesus to be the Lord of her life -- she WILL have a VERY powerful and wonderful testimony for what the Lord has done and continues to do for her and for us, for His honor, glory and praise!
Also, pray I will develop a hunger for the Word of God and be blessed with the right words and actions so my girl (and others) will see Jesus in me!
God bless each one of you. Thank you for your posts and prayers.

Father I pray your will be done for this couple. I pray you will help the fiance to overcome the trauma she has dealt with in her past and in the present. I pray you make your will known to AH1. I pray your hand be upon this relationship.

My fiancee has been having problems with diabetes and then her blood sugar just plummets to hypoglycemia. The latest episodes have been dangerously LOW!
A little more than 2 days ago she was with at an event and her blood sugar plummeted and she passed out. Her glucose was very low. The paramedics were called and they gave her oral glucose solution and an IV. Her blood sugar only came up to about 40 after the glucose and IV!
She was hospitalized for a number of hours and they found her to be dehydrated too. The doctor confirmed what I already knew and have been telling her -- if this continues, she can become comatose and have brain damage or even die from this. He told her, and she doesn't want to hear it.
She has been stubborn and very angry lately. She's lashing out at everyone and almost nothing calms her down. With everything she's gone through, I'd be angry too.
She has been punishing me in the process with things she says and does and seems to have the attitude of - so what, if he loves me, he'll always be there no matter what I do. It's not right and I'm walking on eggshells afraid to even say anything to her about her actions and what's been bothering me. She knows she has this over me and I think it's even gotten worse.
Her roommate confirmed what I'm feeling to be true. She sees it and feels badly because of how my fiancee has been acting and treating me. She's at a loss for what to say to her. I just don't know what to say or do anymore as well.
My fiancee really needs some fervent prayer. I can't help her being so far away. I cant be there with her either.
With all that's happened and everything she's been through, she freaks out and pulls away from me. She admitted to doing that.
I'm very stressed as I haven't been able to talk to her or contact her in any way for over 2 days now. She has been creating drama every few days to push me away, then says "sorry" and acts as if nothing has happened. It's gotten worse over the past few weeks. I am really at a loss here.
I am trying by the grace of God to hang in there, be strong for her and everything else, but I feel like I'm fading fast. It's all taking a toll on me. I dont know if I will make it 3 months (when I'm praying & we're planning she will be home with me finally) and I pray the trial of the rapist happens before that time too and that he is convicted and put away for a LONG time to never hurt anyone else again! He said he was going to kill her. He even sabotaged the brakes on her vehicle to make sure she wouldn't live through the ordeal.
Also, I have another friend I've known for a long time. She's stepped from God's path and is consulting psychics about a possible relationship with a man. She wants to get married and is in a hurry to get what she wants. She's going about it all wrong and even doing some very foolish, unsafe and dangerous things. My heart aches for her and I know she doesn't want to hear what I have to say. Her family is so money oriented -- she's pursing someone with money and I don't see any real, meaningful love with this man -- but she wants to be married to please her family. I don't want to see her hurt or regretting things. Pray for her too. She is a dear soul and was a good friend to me.
I'm needing money badly and have been praying for my settlement/disbursement to come soon. I need it to survive.
As always, I appreciate your prayers. It does mean so much to me.

Intervene for her physical health, her mental and spiritual health, her emotional health. We pray for the knowledge of your will for AH1 and for his fiancée. Help AH1 in every way that you see he needs help. Cause wonderful things to happen to your honor and to your glory. We continue to pray in the name of Jesus Christ for AH1 and his fiancée. Amen.

Father yes, this prayer and these verses speak so clearly to the needs of AH1 and his fiance. Please let all involved see your will clearly. Help this young girl to heal spiritually so that she will seek guidance from you. Help AH1 as he struggles through so many emotions with his worry for her and his feelings of helplessness in this situation. Calm him and bring him the peace of knowing you will take care of things. Thank you Lord.

Thank you for your prayers!!!
I continue to remain concerned about my fiancee. Her blood sugars have been all over the place. Fairly high one minute and plummeting to dangerous levels the next minute.
She has been vomiting for a few weeks now. It's doubtful that its the flu or a virus as it would have been out of her system by now.
The nightmares persist and she is just exhausted every day. I'm praying that she wont keep pulling away, but rather drawing closer to God, and then to me. She told me she feels better when we talk and share things with each other, but that only lasts a day or so and then she seems to be caught up with everything else and doing things with her room mate.
I wish I were closer and could be there with her to help her. It's just not possible. I could help her a lot.
I pray that my lady gets stronger every day for the Lord to heal her physically, mentally and more. She needs it.
Pray with me that the Lord is blessing our relationship and that we will be able to be together before December when we're planning on. That's not a good time to be traveling. She said she would hop on a plane and fly here, but she needs some surgeries first. I pray it all comes together soon and that the trial is slated soon too.
I continue to pray daily for my fiancee, her room mate and their families. That the Holy Spirit would touch their hearts and minds, convict them and reveal to them how much they need Jesus Christ in their lives!
Please pray that God will lift me up through all of this. I'm struggling with some issues and feel kind of worthless most days. I have been messing up and have just been down for quite a while with all this.
Thanks so much for the encouraging words and prayers. I couldnt make it without the mercy and grace of God and all your prayers for us!

Father I continue in prayer for AH1 and his fiance. Please heal her of this physical ailment and heal her soul as well. Help AH1 to remain patient and allow your work to be done. Comfort him as he stands by helplessly watching his loved one go through so much. Thank you that she is finding comfort in her conversations with him. I pray their relationship will be mended and all the wounds his fiance carries will healed.

The Lord has put this prayer on my heart this morning. Father please guide this couple through this nightmare. Calm AH1's thought and give the wisdom he needs to help his fiance through this. Please let her seek the medical attention she needs so physically she will have the strength to deal with her emotions. I pray she builds her realtionship with you, Lord and allows you to accept the cleansing she needs from these terrible memories. I pray for this man who has stayed by her side throughout this ordeal. Please let AH1 not become discouraged or bitter at her rejections but put understanding and patience in his heart. Thank you Father for the healing you will provide.

Our Father, I join sarju60 in lifting her prayer for AH1 and his fiance up to You, in the name of Jesus the Messiah. To GOD be the glory. Amen.

Just an update....
The communication with my fiancee seems to be tense much of the time lately. The phone calls are VERY brief and not even once a day. The talk on the phone seems quite superficial and I am to the point where I'm almost afraid to say anything to her and I've shared that with her.
She has mentioned to me that she senses that she's very touchy and overly sensitive and argumentative. It's just so hard for me. She get defensive, sometimes aggressive and I can sense it's her way of pushing me away. She's admitted doing that too, and said she doesn't know why.
We spoke briefly today and she said she thinks she probably needs counseling but is resistant to that as well. I haven't said anything to her about it. It's going to have to be her decision. Not mine and I won't try to influence her even though I know in my heart that a Christian counselor would do a lot of good.
My mom mentioned to me that she feels that with all the prayers that has been lifted up for my fiancee, mom feels that the Holy Spirit is trying to convict her and she's resisting to that.
I can sense that the enemy is at work and not wanting to give her up without a fight.
Thanks again to everyone who has been praying and encouraging me through all of this. I try my best to take things one day at a time but I don't know how to survive this next 3 months (until she gets here) with things the way they are now.
Her room mate has told me that my fiancee is getting very distant and introverted with her own brother who is there and with the room mate too. She's very concerned too with everything.
Please continue to pray for God's mercy, grace and his blessings upon my fiancee, our families and me. I'm just so worn out with all of this (and contending with some health & financial issues of my own).
Also pray that God will bring healing to my parents and my family too. They are contending with many things right now.
We live in a small community and I just found out in the news that they believe 150 students in various neighboring schools have recently contracted the H1N1 Swine Flu virus! Pray that this outbreak will be contained and not spread further rampantly. The authorities have closed several of the schools entirely. Several of my family members have auto-immune problems and I am concerned about them getting it.
God bless you all and thank you for your continued prayers!
