OK, you who know me, know me to be "no nonsense". Something happened today, (that I may or may not ever elaborate on). But, I honestly, may have just seen today, ...an Angel. Like someone snatched her out of a 40 year old black and white photo, in my actual current time path today, that seemed to know what I was thinking, she communicated to me verbally, an odd thought as I approached her. Dead serious. Does anyone think there may be, ... "Angels" amongst us? PM me if you prefer. Gave me chills. (?)
OK, so ruptured disk was sooo big, that my MD since I was 8 years old sent me to neurosurgeon, who said if I did not have the surgery to retract it I would lose my lower right quadrant, (use of right leg and bladder). So I had the surgery. I had a long trip home, was instructed to get out at gas station parking lots and walk at every so many hours on trip home.
Was doing just that, when a lady approached me. She knocked on my car door, and said, "I have no idea what is going on in your life, but "someone" is really urging me to tell you, that, "It will be OK". I smiled, knowing who that probably was, and thanked her. She said "No, you just don't understand, "someone is really urging me to tell you that it will be OK". :-) I thanked her again, and she wouldn't even look at me as she drove away in disbelief that she had actually approached me, told me that.
I told a few key family members about that, (DH experienced it 1st hand, saw her, heard her.) So yesterday when I told my Mamma, and DH about the "angel?" at the box store, both brought up the lady on the way home after my surgery as being similar. And, here, you tell me the words she spoke, verbatim. Hmmm. ;-)
Thanks for your input. Wow.
Another time when I had to present at a conference and was helplessly lost (before the days of GPS), I prayed for help. In minutes a person appeared at the car door window and asked me if he could help me. He brought me right to the place and then disappeared in a flash.
Many times answered prayers and helpers appear in my life. I believe in God and that He is always there for each one of us.
A big old walk out to the car, put stuff in trunk, cart in coral, I plop down in the driver's seat and turn the key. Just when I started to think, "could that have been", the music CD came on and finished the thought, "an Angel, sent here, from above". (Van Morrison, These Dreams of You)
It bugged me off and on all day. I heard a couple of stories 2nd hand about people seeing "Angels", or at least people who appeared to be from a different time period but were there, plain as day, and several people saw them. Wondering what it meant?
