Study Angels
Do you have confidence in Angels? If you ever ask me in person, my answer could be Yes.
In my previous post I said on the subject of one lesson I learned in a magazine called Signs of the Times. The spotlight of the magazine this month is around Angels. After my read, I’d been intrigue by the introduction story of a lady named Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross who regard herself as a deist.
While supervising a relief effort for one terrible spring flood on the Mississippi River on 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 stranger was insisting on boarding the Mattie Bell. Clara had a lack of time for sightseers and denied the permission. But by the moment she’d sent that order, the boat had pulled away with the extra passenger on board.
Sorry but I should stop the tale here. Is going to be continued in Read on Angels #2. Have to aquire the most beneficial diet tablets to a friend. It’s an exercise 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. Near to sundown, Clara observed the stranger. Darkness fell and the vessel was enveloped in a deep fog that left them navigating the debris-filled river blind. Clara was terrified and in spite of herself, started to pray.
The stranger’s voice disrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat is going to be in a dangerous chasm,” he said. “The captain won’t pay attention 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 at once. 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 believed that an angel had preserved the Mattie Bell.
Despite of the big article, I loved the way the story illustrates unseen guardian angels inside our lives. Okay, need to go with a buddy to seek for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how much time we haven’t had the chance to meet.
