Hello, my name is Rose.
I’m glad to say that I can speak freely about my faith to some of my friends at college, but there is one that has been telling me that she’s been seeing what she thinks is a hell hound that has been following her around and is often at her front door or at her bed room door. She says that she doesn’t fear that it will attack her but it does unnerve her that its there at all. Her boyfriend came to talk to me one day saying that he thought he saw the same thing and later had a dream of an angel coming into their house to fight it off.
I try to tell her that if what she’s seeing is real then she needs to pray that Jesus will protect her and he will answer. She and her boyfriend are Christians so it shouldn’t be a question of whether they are or aren’t but they are so sure of that thing being there and sometimes feeling demons around them.
Curious that these feelings aren’t there when ever I’m around. I’ve even spent the night at their place when I was moving from one apartment to another. Nothing bad happened and I prayed for safety of any evil that might be within the place. Nothing happened and I never witnessed anything and neither did they.
Now my sister claims that she saw one today when she woke up at the foot of her bed. I normally take what she says with a grain of salt because she claims to see ghosts and is afraid of the dark. Mind you she is not a child, but sixteen. She decided to tell me last year that she was an atheist now and all I can say is its no wonder she can’t sleep and is scared of everything. Nothing I say about faith in God ever moves her to comfort anymore cause she says that its not real. However, after she said this to me at lunch about seeing the hell hound, I stopped making my lunch, looked at her and said, “How is it that you find it so easy to believe in such things when you don’t believe in God?”
Curiously, she had nothing to say and only walked off. I don’t know what she was expecting from me. Fear? I’m not fearful for myself. I’m saved and welcome Jesus into my heart. I pray every night and often find myself conversing with God.
What is it that my friend and my sister want me to do about these things? See what they see? I don’t want to be apart of that. Feel their fear? I want no part of being in the presence of something that is so unholy.
If I fear at all it is this: What if my friend and sister are being targeted because of severe choices that they have made. How can I help? I’ve tried and nothing I say seems to work. My friend at college managed to frighten me a little when she spoke that one was near and that it was not good if they left me alone, but I was able to feel comfort that Jesus was with me and my guardian angels will be there for me.
But what of my friend and sister? What should I do?
I hope talking about this doesn’t make someone upset. I feel relieved to post this because I’ve really not been sure if I should speak to Father Tom or what.
God Bless You!
