Read on Angels
Do you believe in Angels? In case you ask me in person, my answer could be Yes.
In my previous post I pointed out on the subject of one lesson I learned from a magazine called Signs of the Times. The highlight for this magazine this month is around Angels. After my read, I was intrigue via the introduction story of a lady named Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross who regard herself to be a deist.
While supervising a relief effort for a terrible spring flood on the Mississippi River on the deck of the riverboat Mattie Bell, she encountered a stranger just before departure from the river that was jammed with debris and submerged dangers. This unfamiliar person was insisting on boarding the Mattie Bell. Clara had little time for sightseers and denied the permission. But by the moment she’d sent that order, the watercraft had pulled away with the extra passenger on board.
Sorry but I must stop the storyline here. Will be continued in Refer to Angels #2. Have to get the most effective weight loss supplements to a friend. It is an exercise machine.
Okay, so the stranger was soon forgotten, for people 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. Near to sundown, Clara came across the stranger. Night fell and the watercraft was enveloped in a thick fog that left them navigating the debris-filled river blind. Clara was terrified and notwithstanding herself, began to pray.
The stranger’s voice disrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat will be in a deadly crevasse,” he said. “The captain will not listen to me. You have to command him to pull back right now!” There was something in the stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order at once. The captain anchored on the other side of the river.
At dawn, everybody saw the death they had narrowly fled from. 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 preserved the Mattie Bell.
Despite of the long article, I loved the way the story illustrates unseen guardian angels within our lives. Okay, need to go with a friend to search for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how long we haven’t had the time to see.
