Read on Angels
Do you believe in Angels? If you ever ask me in person, my answer could possibly be Yes.
In my previous post I mentioned about one lesson I learned in a journal called Signs of the Times. The highlight for this magazine this month is around Angels. After my read, I had been intrigue via the introduction story of a lady named Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross who regard herself as a deist.
While supervising a relief effort to the terrible spring flood on the Mississippi River from the deck of the riverboat Mattie Bell, she encountered a stranger prior to departure from the river that was jammed with debris and submerged dangers. This unknown person was insisting on boarding the Mattie Bell. Clara had a lack of time for sightseers and denied the permission. But by the moment she’d sent that order, the watercraft had pulled away with the surplus passenger on board.
Sorry but I have to stop the tale here. Is going to be continued in Study Angels #2. Should get the most beneficial diet tablets for a friend. It’s an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was quickly forgotten, for they were sailing through a tragic scene. The river was thick with the bloated bodies of livestock, men, women, and children, all floating toward the Gulf of Mexico. Close to sundown, Clara came across the stranger. Night fell and the ship was enveloped in a heavy fog that left them navigating the debris-filled river blind. Clara was terrified and regardless of herself, started to pray.
The stranger’s voice interrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat is going to be in a deadly crevasse,” he said. “The captain is not going to take notice of me. You ought to command him to pull back immediately!” There was something in the stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order quickly. The captain anchored on the opposite side of the river.
At dawn, everyone saw the death they had narrowly escaped. How had the stranger known? Clara asked her staff to look for him in order that they could thank him but “he” is nowhere to be found. Until she died, Clara Barton supposed that an angel had saved the Mattie Bell.
Despite of the big article, I loved how the story illustrates unseen guardian angels within our lives. Okay, need to go with a friend to find prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how much time we haven’t had the opportunity to see.
