Emotions In The House

Cleansing the land

Sam and I lost our beautiful cat Snowy to cancer suddenly and unexpectedly about a year ago. We both have shared our home with cats since our marriage and many have passed away. But something was different about losing Snowy. We could not get over our grief. The emotions just kept coming on so strongly. Even our other cat Joseph was grieving so deeply that he barely ate and spent his days in the closet with a catnip banana. We worried that we were going to lose him too.

We applied prayer. We applied reason. But nothing lessened the intensity of our grief until we adopted two silly kittens supposedly for Joseph, but really for us. Even with the antics of our new kittens to divert us, we quietly continued to grieve the loss of Snowy.

The anniversary of Snowy’s death came and Joseph stopped eating. He began hiding in the closet. Thousands of dollars in vet bills later and no vet could tell us what was wrong. He appeared perfectly healthy, accept that I was having to force feed him with a syringe. The fear that we would lose Joseph became overwhelming as did the grief.

Many prayers and prayer requests later, Sam wondered aloud if someone precious had died in our house. We have only lived here a few years. He wondered if a child had died, then thought that maybe it was a much-loved pet and the owner had not been able to stop grieving.

We immediately began to cleanse the house of any emotions left behind by previous homeowners. We instructed our angels to remove the emotions and to remove any spirits that had attached to this house in order to exploit those unresolved emotions. The emotional atmosphere lightened immediately. And we realized that we had been trying to process emotions that were not our own. We were still worried about Joseph, who is doing fine now, but our emotions became manageable.

All of us, including Joseph, were discerning someone else’s grief. This was the reason we could not recover from Snowy’s loss. Land and structures can hold emotions. Tragic death, divorce, fighting, and abuse all leave behind negative emotions. If you have not cleansed your home of any left-behind emotions, it might be a good idea to do so.

How long must the land cry out in mourning …? Jeremiah 12:4
