Study Angels
Do you have confidence in Angels? In case you ask me individually, my answer could be Yes.
In my previous post I pointed out about a lesson I learned in a journal called Signs belonging to the Times. The highlight for this magazine this month is around Angels. After my read, I’d been intrigue by the introduction story from 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 unknown person was insisting on boarding the Mattie Bell. Clara had no time for sightseers and denied the permission. But by the moment she’d sent that order, the watercraft had pulled away with the surplus passenger on board.
Sorry but I must stop the storyline here. Is going to be continued in Refer to Angels #2. Have to aquire the most effective diet tablets to a friend. It’s an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was soon 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 toward the Gulf of Mexico. Close to sundown, Clara came across the stranger. Darkness fell and the ship was enveloped in a heavy fog that left them navigating the debris-filled river blind. Clara was terrified and regardless of herself, began to pray.
The stranger’s voice disrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat is going to be in a deadly crevasse,” he said. “The captain will not listen to me. You have to command him to pull back at once!” There was something in the stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order without delay. 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 look for him so they could thank him but “he” is nowhere to be found. Until she died, Clara Barton supposed that an angel had preserved the Mattie Bell.
In spite of of the big article, I loved how the story illustrates unseen guardian angels within our lives. Okay, need to go with a friend to search for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how much time we haven’t had the opportunity to see.
