My husband and I had dinner last night with one of our best priest friends and his sister last night. The priest had a visiting priest from out of town. This priest is one of the highest regarded exorcists in the USA. After dinner, he asked me if I felt oppression, and I told him, yes. He asked my if it would be okay for him to lay hands on me and pray for me. He asked what had happened to me, and my mouth dropped. He described what I had been experience IRL and on the internet. He prayed for nearly a half hour without ceasing, and touched the exact areas in which I was struggling. HE said, "you go to internet religious boards, don't you?" And he advised me that even to someone who knows you buy a pen name, can curse you, because the demons are soldiers of the enemy and can attach themselves to us even via the internet, because THEY know us. He warned me about evangelizing online, because it draws a target on us that gets bigger and bigger as more of the truth is revealed, and they can even come from Catholics. He explained that other souls are also oppressed, not possessed, and they don't even have the slightest idea that they are bearing the weight of the enemy and don't know it. But these demons are very attracted to those who love Christ, because they want the people for their lord, and hate us who love the True Love and grace found in the world. I knew about that stuff, and how it could happen, but not once did I think I would ever be a patsy for the evil one.
He told me that it's going to be hard at first, because the minions don't want to lose their grasp on me. After a while it gets easier, and with prayer and fasting, eventually I would lose the desire to be around people (IRL or Web), because it feels so much better. Evangelizing should be in person, even a little prayer group. But not somewhere that I have no protection against. I may pop up now & again, but I'm asking my guardian angel to help me see what I need to. And those times that I feel that again, I should just pray for Jesus to come and take this away from me, because I can't do it myself.
There are no coincidences. I was dumbfounded by how things unfolded, and was really uncomfortable last night. I felt terribly ill until I fell asleep, but awoke with refreshment in my soul. I may be tempted to post, and if it is for prayer, or a time of joy or sadness, I will celebrate and mourn with you. I have a lot of books to get to, and I love to read.
I wish you all a Blessed Christmas an a Happy, Holy, and fruitful year for you.
