Please pray that the Lord's will be done in my life and my fiancee's concerning our upcoming wedding. I need the Lord's counselling urgently.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Thank you for all your prayers. I wish I could be more specific. The best I feel comfortable saying right now - is that our relationship has taken some pretty heavy testing blows lately. And the wedding is next Friday.

You know, it still isn't too late to not get married, or to postpone it for a bit. It may seem that way, but in the long run, wouldn't you rather take the time and work things out and be sure than go through a wedding just for the sake of the wedding?
I don't know your situation, and I certainly don't want to tell you want to do, but please just don't feel pressured into going through with something you don't feel 100% sure about. Do you feel comfortable talking with your minister about what is going on? Or someone else that could give you counsel?
I don't know that I could be much help, but my PM box is open and I'll be glad to listen if you need to talk.
In the meantime, lifting you and your situation in prayer.

wvmtnkid gave excellant advice (as usual)
there is a much used saying "marry in haste...repent at leisure"... please be certain that you can live with this man for the rest of your life, before you committ. Praying for you and your situation.

All good advice, Vapor. I would go one further though and suggest that not only you seek counsel but the two of you together. God likes everything out in the open, in the light, so that's where it should be between you whatever the problem(s).
Study the cord of three strands for an idea of what you're about to enter into. This is God making a marriage strong.

Right before my husband and I got married, his closet door flew open and out came the skeleton...except it was still living and breathing. We dealt with it and continued on and got married. We are still dealing with it, everyday. I think once you decide to take that step toward marriage that satan wants to do everything in his "power" to destroy it. Seek God's Will for your relationship and where to take it. I pray that whatever it is, everything will work out for you!

There's nothing wrong with waiting if necessary. Anything can be rescheduled. An eternity with the wrong person can wait. I am not saying it is wrong however, if it is dealing with a cheating issue, be very careful here! I am sorry if I am too direct. I don't wish to see anyone hurt. I just felt compelled to mention this for some reason. If it is right, it will happen for you. Take care.

I agree especially with wvmtnkid. If you have any uncertainties, NOW is the time to deal with them, not when you're married.
