    Thank you Rosemary and Emma for this important conversation about prayer!!! This makes me recall the first time I came back to our Great Loving Lord. It was more than 40 years ago, that my younger sister along with her friend brought evil spirits into our bedroom!!! She woke up one morning unable to breathe properly. She told me and my other sister that a force came upon her and that she was unable to breathe normal. Then another day my other sister had the same encounter!!! I don’t know why I said this to both my sisters, but I said to them ” This is not going to happen to me!” Early one morning, in my dream, I felt this force coming upon me upon my chest. It was trying to pin me down!!! All of a sudden, I started to pray Our Father Who Art In Heaven. The last time I prayed this prayer was when I was 10 years old in England!!! I remembered all the words!!! In my dream I could see myself rising from my bed, that force could not pin me down!!! Then I awoke in such peace and calmness… With no force that unable to breathe…I told my sisters, they were speechless!!! Then I told them I would go and seek help. There was no one I knew that was Catholic then, but two Christians who I worked with as waitresses in Parliament House. I told them what happened and they asked me to come to their Church. I did along with my sister. My father, who then was a Communist told me, that if I continue to follow this faith that he would throw me out of the house. I turned to my sister and said ” Do you want to come with me?” She answered yes!!! My Dad was so surprised!!!… Now I have returned to the Catholic Faith. That important prayer, Our Father brought me back to Faith to God the Father, God His Beloved Son, our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ and God our Great Helper, the Holy Spirit…Thank you both for reminding me, Rosemary and Emma!!!
    In Christ’s Love
