Read on Angels
Do you believe in Angels? If you ask me in person, my answer could possibly be Yes.
In my previous post I mentioned about a lesson I learned in a magazine called Signs of the Times. The highlight of this magazine this month is around Angels. After my read, I had been intrigue by the introduction story of a lady named Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross who regard herself like a deist.
While supervising a relief effort to the terrible spring flood on the Mississippi River from the deck on the riverboat Mattie Bell, she encountered a stranger prior to departure 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 moment she’d sent that order, the ship had pulled away with the unwanted passenger on board.
Sorry but I should stop the storyline here. Will be continued in Read on Angels #2. Have to get the best weight loss pills for a friend. It is an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was quickly forgotten, for people were sailing through 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. Night 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 interrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat will be in a lethal chasm,” he said. “The captain will not take notice of me. You must command him to pull back at once!” There was something in regards to stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order immediately. 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 supposed that an angel had saved the Mattie Bell.
Despite of the big article, I loved how 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 chance to meet.
