Study Angels
Do you believe in Angels? If you ask me personally, my answer would be Yes.
In my previous post I said on the subject of a 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 was intrigue by 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 from the deck on the riverboat Mattie Bell, she encountered a stranger just before leaving 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 boat had pulled away with the extra passenger on board.
Sorry but I have to stop the tale here. Will be continued in Study Angels #2. Need to get the most beneficial diet tablets for a friend. It’s an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was immediately forgotten, for they were sailing via a tragic scene. The river was thick with the puffed up bodies of livestock, men, women, and children, all floating toward the Gulf of Mexico. Close to sundown, Clara saw the stranger. Night fell and the vessel was enveloped in a thick fog that left them navigating the debris-filled river blind. Clara was terrified and notwithstanding herself, started to pray.
The stranger’s voice disrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat is going to be in a lethal crevasse,” he said. “The captain is not going to listen to me. You must command him to pull back at once!” There was something about the stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order without delay. The captain anchored on the opposite side of the river.
At dawn, everyone saw the death they had narrowly fled from. 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 saved the Mattie Bell.
Despite of the big article, I loved how the story illustrates unseen guardian angels inside our lives. Okay, need to go with a friend to look for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how long we haven’t had the time to meet.
