There are various kinds of angels: cherubim, seraphim, and archangels.Īngels are invisible unless God chooses to make them visible. Angels are spirit beings, not bound by gravity or other natural forces. They were created to do God’s bidding, to obey His will. They were made right before the foundation of Earth. David Jeremiah writes, “Angels are mentioned 108 times in the Old Testament and 165 times in the New Testament.” I find it odd celestial beings are mentioned so many times and yet are so poorly understood.Īngels are God’s “ messengers,” His special creations-called “flames of fire” and sometimes described as fiery stars in the heavens. What are angels like? Who are they guarding and why? Is guarding all they do? Let's take a look at what the Bible tells us about angels. Are there guardian angels? Yes - but we have to ask some questions. Collectors in Angel Clubs amass “everything angel.” Some connected with New Age teachings conduct angel seminars to help people communicate with angels for “divine guidance” or to experience “angel therapy.” Unfortunately, angels can serve as an otherworldly focus to appear “spiritual” but not deal directly with the Lord.Įven in some churches, believers misunderstand angels’ purpose and their activity. Some even pray to angels for help or for blessing-almost like wishing on a star. Increasingly in art, however, angels are portrayed as strong, masculine warriors. In many paintings, they look like feminine creatures in white robes. I’d love to speak to your group, organization or company about working our way through the pain and challenges of everyday life.Angels are sometimes portrayed as cute, plump, non-threatening cherubs. Hey, drop me a line at or leave a comment. Looking around at the army of guardian angels hiding behind nearby trees, vehicles and buildings, I thanked all of them but had one important question: A lot of soul healing in that moment, especially for me … I saw myself, and I could not help but ask, “Can I give you a hug to let you know everything will be okay?” With her and her dad’s approval, I did and felt her body relax. We exchanged information, etc., and simply talked. She called her dad who showed up shortly. A witness told me I did some pretty good defensive driving. I swerved and sped up to avoid it.īAM! The back driver’s side. Driving home after hours of interviews and research, I entered a familiar one-way street and saw backup lights on the left. Someone mercifully loosened it and I only wanted to sleep as I waited to be examined …Īnd this week. I laid with that neck brace, tears flowing from the pain of the collar, putting pressure on the back of my neck injured previously. Without that golden seat belt, I would’ve punched the windshield. At a stoplight, Roger yelled “hold on!” BAM! Slammed from behind. Roger and I had dropped our son off with his grandparents for a week and headed home. Me, whiplash, still requiring special pillows 30+ years …Īnd the time in Indiana I was on crutches after a bad ankle sprain. I did the mother protective move with my right arm. My son with me, a car came at us and I had nowhere to go.
Never again ….Īnd that time at the stop sign a block from home. Back at the dorm, I called my folks in tears, sharing the news and how I should have told them I was going. We exchanged information, and my damage wasn’t horrible. Thanking God, I -īAM! Rear-ended by a truck that had slowed in the fog.
#Whats a guardian angel Patch#
With blinkers on to be visible, I crossed a bridge where my brown Chevy Vega hit a patch of ice and spun in a complete circle, facing south again.Ĭatching my breath, I started forward, wondering how I had avoided the guard rails and going off the bridge.
Sure enough, that’s when I got in trouble.ĭriving back to Evansville, the roads had some slick spots and the fog suddenly thickened as there was considerable truck traffic on highway 41 between the two cities. Moments when God called in extras … Like in college when I didn’t tell my parents I had visited Roger two hours away at Rose Hulman in Terre Haute, Indiana. Several dear friends have given me a gift saying, “Drive no faster than your guardian angel can fly.” With the gazillion miles I drive, I’ve always heeded that advice … hearing the flapping of winged protectors many times.
