Angels - Celestial beings, heavenly host, God's messengers.
Angels are they real or fiction? Or, are they just some mythical creatures from long ago? I personally believe that Angels exist, not just because the bible says so but because I have had a close encounter with the heavenly kind. Here's my story: It was one winter night, my family and I had gone to bed. Before I went to sleep; I prayed a prayer asking God to place his Angels around my family to keep us all safe as we slept. I went to sleep along with my husband and our then 6 children.
Sometime later I was awaken, something or someone drew me toward our living room. I walked up toward the center of the room, I felt like there was a force of some kind trying to pull me down to the floor. I fought it; I felt an urge to wake up my husband. He wouldn't wake up; I persistly pulled at him and said; baby get up! We have to get the children out of the house. Finally, he moved, but he keep passing out, I kept pulling on him until we began to quickly get our 6 children out of the house. We took them out through the back door because we couldn't go out the front.
Well, I am happy to say that we all survived. What it turned out to be was; that earlier that day we had a gas heater installed in our house. It was not installed properly, so carbon dioxide had escaped from it and that was the force that I was fighting. As everyone knows, you can not smell carbon dioxide. I didn't smell anything I could feel it and God lead me to get my family out. We should all be dead, but God did exactly that I asked him to do that night. He put his Angels around us and protected my whole family. So, I truly believe that Angels do exist and that they are watching over us everyday. If you have had an experience with Angels, I would love to have you share it here on my blog. So, please comment; tell me about your close encounter of the heavenly kind.
Luke 13 and 14
and suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying. Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will toward me.
