We had a cleansing time with the girls today. It started with a big ordeal around Joaninina. She stole some money from Papa and when she returned to the girls house, very grumpy, they had a few carefully chosen words to say, not straight forward cutting words, but subtle cutting words. Joaninina was very clever tough and knows well what they were doing. She packed her things and went to tell Papa she was leaving. That’s when I came home from Dauce’s soccer game. I began dealing with her and realized that it was not her but demons again. I decided to lock her up in my room again. She didn’t take to kindly to it and it took 4 big boys and girls to carry her there with her kicking and biting and saying horrible things that I was happy I couldn’t understand.
This can be quite exhausting but I believe the Lord has given me wisdom and with it grace to deal with it. You see, I have hope for this little girl because she is in God’s hands.
She stayed in my room standing stubbornly by the door while I did my dishes. Soon she got tired and sat on the floor. Then she asked me why one of the girls spoke cutting words to her. That’s when I gathered the other girls and began to deal with them while she was in my house.
I was able to give them some tools to deal with her and also impart my hope for her. She is a gift to us, exposing our hearts, allowing God to deal with our motives and teach us how to love our enemies. They were very receptive and our evening was amazing. Some of the girls played and danced with Joaninina and teased her without provoking. She was in heaven and so was I.
I am sure there is much more work to be done but today was a breakthrough day at the girls’ home.
