Read on Angels
Do you believe in Angels? In case you ask me individually, my answer could possibly be Yes.
In my previous post I mentioned on the subject of a lesson I learned in a journal called Signs belonging to the Times. The highlight for this magazine this month is about Angels. After my read, I was intrigue because of 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 on the deck on the riverboat Mattie Bell, she encountered a stranger right 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 period she’d sent that order, the watercraft had pulled away with the surplus passenger on board.
Sorry but I need to stop the storyline here. Will be continued in Study Angels #2. Should get the best diet pills for a friend. It is an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was immediately forgotten, for they were sailing via a tragic scene. The water was thick with the puffed up bodies of livestock, men, women, and children, all floating in the direction of the Gulf of Mexico. Close to sundown, Clara noticed the stranger. Darkness fell and the ship was enveloped in a thick fog that left them navigating the debris-filled river blind. Clara was terrified and in spite of herself, began to pray.
The stranger’s voice disrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat will be in a mortal crevasse,” he said. “The captain will not pay attention to me. You have to command him to pull back immediately!” There was something in the stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order at once. The captain anchored on the opposite side of the river.
At dawn, everybody saw the death they had narrowly escaped. How had the stranger known? Clara asked her staff to find him in order that they could thank him but “he” is nowhere to be found. Until she died, Clara Barton believed that an angel had saved the Mattie Bell.
In spite of of the long article, I loved how the story illustrates unseen guardian angels within our lives. Okay, need to go with a buddy to search for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how much time we haven’t had the time to meet.
