Read on Angels
Do you believe in Angels? If you ever ask me in person, my answer could possibly be Yes.
In my previous post I said about a lesson I learned in a journal 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 to be a deist.
While supervising a relief effort to the terrible spring flood on the Mississippi River on the deck of the riverboat Mattie Bell, she encountered a stranger right 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 a lack of time for sightseers and denied the permission. But by the period she’d sent that order, the boat had pulled away with the unwanted passenger on board.
Sorry but I should stop the tale here. Is going to be continued in Read on Angels #2. Should get the most beneficial diet tablets for a friend. It’s an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was quickly 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 toward the Gulf of Mexico. Close to sundown, Clara came across the stranger. Night fell and the vessel was enveloped in a heavy 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 interrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat will be in a deadly crevasse,” he said. “The captain is not going to listen to me. You ought to command him to pull back at once!” There was something about the 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, every person 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 protected the Mattie Bell.
In spite of of the huge article, I loved the way the story illustrates unseen guardian angels inside our lives. Okay, need to go with a friend to seek for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how long we haven’t had the time to see.
