Chapter 188

She picked up her diary and started writing, I have heard ghost stories from the time I was a very young girl. When we had sleep-over’s we would take the flashlight, hide under the covers, and spin tall tails about the man with the golden arm. It would cause us to have nightmares. (I wonder if that man ever found his golden arm). When a few of my friends visit, we used to bring up the subject about ghosts and wonder if they really existed.

The Bible tells us we do not war with flesh and blood, but with spiritual beings. God himself is a spirit. We have the Holy Spirit that hears our prayers and takes them back to God. The Bible speaks about ghosts not having bodies, or of people in the Bible ‘giving up the ghost’. But today I know they exist, because I have encountered one in right in my home. I actually do understand what the term “Ghost” means.

Yes, a spirit inside someone, who could just break or betray another’s spirit and is in the form of my step-father and I swear no one will break my spirit, NO ONE! She got up, packed up her bags and her belongings, made a phone call, left a note for her half-brother and walked out.
