The Ant Pact

Greetings Bishop, may God bless you!
We visited a place here in Mozambique, where many pacts are made to destroy lives. Among all of the pacts we found, this one really caught my attention. It’s the photograph of a young man; his name and date of birth were written below it, and an ant ran in circles around his name.
We learned that this pact could have been done, so that this young man’s life keeps going around in circles and he never amounts to anything. We also found an article of clothing near the photograph. In this case, we were told that the pact could have been done by a woman, so that he would sleep around with many women but, unfortunately, he’d never settle down with any of them. And how many women are sleeping around with various men without being able to settle down with them either? They’ve fallen victim to a pact with that female spirit that doesn’t allow its victims to be beholden to any man.
This happens in many people’s lives; they fight and struggle ... but never amount to anything. Just like the ant keeps turning but never goes anywhere, the same happens in the life of those who’ve fallen victim to this pact.
Bishop John Leite
