Study Angels
Do you believe in Angels? If you ask me personally, my answer could be Yes.
In my previous post I pointed out about one lesson I learned from a magazine called Signs belonging to the Times. The highlight of the magazine this month is about Angels. After my read, I was intrigue because of the introduction story from a lady named Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross who regard herself as a deist.
While supervising a relief effort for a 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 unknown person was insisting on boarding the Mattie Bell. Clara had a lack of 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 should stop the story here. Is going to be continued in Read on Angels #2. Have to aquire the top weight loss pills to a friend. It is an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was quickly 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 in the direction of the Gulf of Mexico. Close to sundown, Clara observed the stranger. Darkness 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 interrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat will be in a lethal chasm,” he said. “The captain is not going to listen to me. You ought to command him to pull back at once!” There was something concerning stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order quickly. The captain anchored on the other side of the river.
At dawn, every person saw the death they had narrowly escaped. How had the stranger known? Clara asked her staff to find him so they could thank him but “he” is nowhere to be found. Until she died, Clara Barton considered that an angel had protected the Mattie Bell.
In spite of of the big article, I loved how the story illustrates unseen guardian angels in our lives. Okay, need to go with a pal to look for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how long we haven’t had the chance to see.
