I'm going to be honest here ... it's my understanding that situations like these cause those of us w/ a Pentecostal theology to blame ourselves for somewhow ... losing a soul.
Esther, you have expressed that perhaps your pastor and yourself felt he/you could have done more. I know this feeling well. I lived it when God said no to the liver transplant that would have saved my Dad's life ....
There are some things out of our control. Some things that are done by personal choice ... This is a choice she made ... we don't know why but we must accept.
Our God has the final say.
