'Ngeit' is fun to say. You put your tongue into 'ng' as in song, and then say 'night'. The girls correct me every time.
Ngeit was one of our new patients whom I was introduced to on my return from NZ. She has been diagnosed with arthritis and has been in a lot of pain through her body, arms and fingers. I did not know so much about her until I sat at her bedside this week, together with Chantol, to pray for her.
While praying, I kept having an impression of a verse that says that 'when you pray, if you have anything against anyone, forgive them ...' So, we stopped praying, dug out the verse and talked to Ngeit. She started to cry.
Ngeit and her little daughter Dtouch (we call her Dtouch number 2, to distinguish her from our cook!)
Ngeit told us that she had a major falling out with her village neighbour. The animosity escalated. The neighbour went to a local witch-doctor and paid him to curse Ngeit. After that, she became sick.
We've got Ngeit on a new medicine. It is called 'blessing those who curse you'. Now, before we pray for her, we ask her to pray blessing on her neighbour. These are her steps to freedom. She testifies that the pain level has truly decreased these last two days.
