Read on Angels
Do you have confidence in Angels? If you ever ask me in person, my answer could be Yes.
In my previous post I mentioned on the subject of one lesson I learned in a magazine called Signs of the Times. The highlight of the magazine this month is around Angels. After my read, I’d been intrigue because of the introduction story of a lady named Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross who regard herself like 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 leaving from the river that was jammed with debris and submerged dangers. This unfamiliar person was insisting on boarding the Mattie Bell. Clara had a lack of time for sightseers and denied the permission. But by the time she’d sent that order, the watercraft had pulled away with the extra passenger on board.
Sorry but I have to stop the tale here. Will be continued in Read on Angels #2. Need to get the top weight loss pills for a friend. It is an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was immediately forgotten, for people were sailing via a tragic scene. The stream 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 saw 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 dangerous crevasse,” he said. “The captain is not going to listen to me. You must command him to pull back right now!” There was something concerning 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 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 supposed that an angel had saved the Mattie Bell.
Despite of the big article, I loved the way the story illustrates unseen guardian angels within our lives. Okay, need to go with a mate to look for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how much time we haven’t had the chance to see.
