Are you Vacant or Occupied?

Well, as usual the kids village has sparked conversations I never imagined having with my babies. Hunter got in the car telling us about demons, not scary at all for immature brains, or mature ones for that matter. I explained to them that if you are "full" which I explained meant you had Jesus in your heart that a demon could not come into you but if you are empty the demons can come in. The kids asked several questions then Hunter said like the potty, occupied? On porta potties there is a switch from vacant to occupied. We have tried to dull the fear of demonic possession and to comfort them. Hunter KNOWS beyond a shadow that he prayed and asked Jesus into his heart over 2 years ago (a story that hasn't changed in detail or ferver) and he said well I am occupied. It was funny because we could read Cooper's mind and he thought I haven't asked Jesus in my heat...truly he is not ready for that right now. So as I tucked him in tonight and walked out of his room he kept saying "I am occupied, I am occupied..." I told him you know that Jesus will protect from everything Coop, he will take care of you. I felt so bad, they will both have scary thoughts of demons tonight. Pray for sweet peaceful dreams in out house tonight.
