"ANGELS"
Today I was thinking about Angels.....
Amazing things angels....Did you realize that mankind can count on his hand the things usually prayed too....Gods, Saints, Angels....as a group
they seem to rank right up there as pretty special....We name them, give them specific jobs or titles...clasify them and give them rank even....and
from what I can tell they deserve every bit of the attention we give to them.....just think about it here.....
Angels bring us messages, they protect us from harm, sometimes even from ourselves, they give us guidence and teachings...and even bring
warnings....
I'm thinking of the story of Lot....and when Angels were sent to warn him of his cities impending destruction by God....Now thats the kind of
messangers i'd want coming around......still, as I was thinking of that story today i couldn't help but think of the angels and the conversation
they must have been having as they were leaving the city......Angel one, "You did mention to his wife not to look back didn't you?" Angel two,
"Nah, I told Lot and i'm sure he'll pass the message along." : )
We also have disagreements about angels, their purpose or meaning...just like we have disagreements about alot of other things...But that
doesn't change the sheer magic and warmth they seem to bring into our beings as we discuss them or feel them around us...the one thing i've yet to
find disagreement on is if they exist..seems we all believe that....
I watched a movie recently, "City of Angels" and in it the writer seemed to be stressing that people and angels were seperate...two differant
beings and that even though in the movie an angel became human that is wasn't possible for a human to become an angel....
BAHHH!!!! I don't believe that for even a second....
Anyone who believes humans can't be angels has obviously never seen the face of a sleeping toddler, or a fireman struggling desperately to save
the burning home of someone he doesn't know, or a volunteer in a hospice helping a dying person make an easy journey into the next world....
Matter of fact...I believe we all have a streak of angel in us....each of us has done good things that were beyond the norm...with prayers, hope
hugs and love we've touched more lives than any of us will ever really know....
I guess the point i'm getting at is this. The next time you find yourself in front of a mirror, looking for a new gray hair or and old gray
wrinkle....step back for just a moment...and take a good look at the person in the mirror....You may just be suprised at the beauty of the angel
looking back at you....
