This page is a personal expression of ANGELS: swift, heavenly, powerful creatures mighty in strength, but gentle when the need arises to be gentle.
ANGELS are mentioned in the Holy
Bible at least nearly 300 times.
They are spoken of from the first book of the Bible
(Genesis) right through to the last book
in the Bible (Revelation); assigned
to watch over you throughout your
lifetime; an ANGEL will escort you, the
believer, to the Kingdom of God when
you die.
According to the
scriptures ANGELS are many in number Hebrews
12:22, "But ye are come unto
mount....and to an innumerable
company of Angels," ANGELS are
created beings..God's secret agents.
ANGELS have the ability to change
their appearance and often move back and
forth between Heaven and Earth, have
been called ministering "spirits". Witnesses sighting
ANGELS have stated they appear taller
than an average house.
ANGELS are messengers, guardians
and warriors. They travel in bands or
sometimes alone. They are forever
fulfilling their commands from God.
The ANGELS mentioned in the Bible have masculine
given names (Gabriel, Michael).
Yet, most pictures drawn/painted
clearly depict ANGELS as feminine
creatures, unlike the ANGELS
mentioned in the Holy Bible.
According to the Bible, ANGELS were
created before man. In the book of
Genesis 1:26, "And God said, Let US
make man in our image, after OUR
likeness:...". Could it be that God was
talking to his ANGELS..Genesis 1:27,
"So God created man in his OWN
image,...".
ANGELS can make an appearance to
you if so commanded by God. Daniel
9:21, "Yea, whiles I was speaking in
prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I
had seen in the vision at the begining,
being caused to FLY SWIFTLY,
touched me..." and "he informed me,
and talked with me,...".
ANGELS, unlike God's created man,
do not pair off as couples. LUKE
20:35, "....and the resurrection from the
dead, neither marry, nor are they given
in marriage." Luke 20:36, ".....for they
are equal unto the ANGELS;....".
One afternoon, I related this story to my grandmother who informed me she believed
I was dying , not breathing any longer, and an angel slapped me awake. I never doubted what she
believed and was quite satisfied and comfortable with her explanation.
On this particular morning of this vision, I got up to prepare myself for work as usual. Later that morning
while at work, it finally "hit me" and the vision came back so clearly of the angels. The angels I saw
had bright light radiating from them from head to feet, the faces appeared much like porcelin dolls..real
smooth and flawless. They were drapped in white flowing garments and their feet were wrapped in
cloth which criss-crossed around their feet. I saw two angels.. one large and one small one (child-like).
They did not have flesh color, only light, like white lightening.
Another incident occurred while dreaming. After hearing a story of the Russian cosmonaut's reports
that they had seen a band of angels going on a mission while they were in space, I always wanted to
see some angels. Eventually, I was blessed and had the opportunity in a vision (dream).
This next story is shared by C. Rogan.
I jumped out of bed and started going through the house to see what was
happening and when I got to my den, I saw flames going up my den wall. I
screamed for everyone to get out of the house, which we did.
The fire dept said that in another few minutes we all would have been
blown to bits because on the back side of my den wall was my gas stove
and all the lines were red hot.
This happened over 20 years ago, and still today I can remember the
feel of that hand, the feel of being touched by an angel."
Another angel experience shared by Ruth Williams:
Then I realized my whole room was lit up and I immediately sat up and saw this
figure shining in the corner of my bedroom. He stood from floor to ceiling, a
bright light emanating from him that went clear down the hall. In his hands
was my little grandson, not as a ghost but as real as my own flesh. I
couldn't say anything for fear I'd lost my mind. I wanted to call my son in
the next room, but I was even afraid he would not see what I was seeing. Then,
without a sound, the angel and baby went straight up through the ceiling and
instantly the room became dark again.
My son yelled out, "Mom, what was that light?" I said, "You saw it too?" He
replied, "Yes, I tried to get up to see but a man was standing beside me and
pushed me back and told me that this was "for your mother".
Now I know this all sounds unreal, but it did happen. My grief for my little
grandson, though never gone, is at rest because I know he is alive and well.
Someday I hope and pray I will go to play with him up there.
God bless you for putting on the web such a beautiful and blessed site."
"Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. St. Matthew: 5, 8-9."

I walked into the grocery store not particularly interested in buying groceries. I wasn't hungry. The pain of losing my husband of 37 years was still too raw. And this grocery store held so many sweet memories.
Rudy often came with me and almost every time he'd pretend to go off and look for something special. I knew what he was up to. I'd always spot him walking down the aisle with the three yellow roses in his hands. Rudy knew I loved yellow roses. With a heart filled with grief, I only wanted to buy my few items and leave, but even grocery shopping was different since Rudy had passed on.
Shopping for one took time, a little more thought than it had for two. Standing by the meat, I searched for the perfect small steak and remembered how Rudy had loved his steak. Suddenly a woman came beside me. She was blond, slim and lovely in a soft green pantsuit. I watched as she picked up a large pack of T-bones, dropped them in her basket, hesitated, and then put them back. She turned to go and once again reached for the pack of steaks. She saw me watching her and she smiled. "My husband loves T-bones, but honestly, at these prices, I don't know."
I swallowed the emotion down my throat and met her pale blue eyes. "My husband passed away eight days ago," I told her. Glancing at the package in her hands, I fought to control the tremble in my voice. "Buy him the steaks. And cherish every moment you have together." She shook her head and I saw the emotion in her eyes as she placed the package in her basket and wheeled away.
I turned and pushed my cart across the length of the store to the dairy products. There I stood, trying to decide which size milk I should buy.A quart, I finally decided and moved on to the ice cream section near the front of the store. If nothing else, I could always fix myself an ice cream cone. I placed the ice cream in my cart and looked down the aisle toward the front. I saw first the green suit, then recognized the pretty lady coming towards me. In her arms she carried a package. On her face was the brightest smile I had ever seen. I would swear a soft halo encircled her blond hair as she kept walking toward me, her eyes holding mine. As she came closer, I saw what she held and tears began misting in my yes.
"These are for you," she said and placed three beautiful long stemmed yellow roses in my arms. "When you go through the line, they will know these are paid for." She leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on my cheek, then smiled again. I wanted to tell her what she'd done, what the roses meant, but still unable to speak, I watched as she walked away as tears clouded my vision. I looked down at the beautiful roses nestled in the green tissue wrapping and found it almost unreal.
How did she know? Suddenly the answer seemed so clear. I wasn't alone. "Oh,Rudy, you haven't forgotten me, have you?" I whispered, with tears in my eyes. He was still with me, and she was his ANGEL. Everyday be thankful for what you have and who you are." (Author unknown)
Angels In The Alley - A True Story
Diane, a young Christian university student, was home for the summer. She had gone to visit some friends one evening & the time passed quickly as each shared their various experiences of the past year.
She ended up staying longer than she had planned. Evening came & Diane had to walk home alone. But she wasn't afraid because it was a small town and
she lived only a few blocks away. As she walked along under the tall elm trees, Diane asked "God" to keep her safe from harm & danger. When she reached the alley, which was a short cut to her house, she decided
to take it. However, halfway down the alley, she noticed a man standing at the end, as though he were waiting for her. She became uneasy & began to pray,
asking for "God's" protection. Instantly a comforting feeling of quietness & security wrapped around her; she felt as though someone was walking with her. When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man & arrived home safely.
The following day, she read in the paper that a young girl had been raped in the same alley, just twenty minutes after she had been there. Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy & the fact that it could of
been her, she began to weep. Thanking the Lord for her safety & to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station. She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story. The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him. She agreed & immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before. When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately broke down & confessed.
The officer thanked Diane for her bravery & asked if there was anything they could do for her, she asked if they would ask the man one question. Diane was curious as to why he had not attacked her. When the policeman asked him, he answered, "Because she wasn't alone. She had two tall men walking on either side of her."
Never Underestimate THE POWER OF PRAYER!
He, who loses money, loses much; He, who loses a friend, loses much more; He, who loses FAITH, loses ALL.
Jennifer M. was sick in bed and sleeping when her apartment caught fire. When she woke, the smoke was so thick she couldn’t find her way out. She collapsed on the floor, certain she was going to die.
Then, just as she was about to lose consciousness, she felt herself being picked up and cradled by strong arms. She could barely see the caring face of the figure carrying her to safety. But she felt a peace and serenity like none she had ever experienced.
Seconds later, she was put down in the hallway, a safe distance from the raging fire. When Jennifer turned to thank the fireman who had saved her, she saw nothing but a robed white figure slowly disappearing.
"Who are you?" Jennifer cried out. The figure turned and a deep male voice intoned, "Let’s just say I’m from New York."
Then through a window she saw the fire truck just arriving. Shocked, overwhelmed, Jennifer knew her life had been saved by an angel, who had vanished into the mist.
