WHAT DO ANGELS LOOK LIKE?
Like the little old lady who returned your wallet yesterday.
Like the taxi driver who told you that your eyes light up the world when
you smile.
Like the small child who showed you the wonder in simple things.
Like the poor man who offered to share his lunch with you.
Like the rich man who showed you that it really is all possible, if only
you believe.
Like the stranger who just happened to come along, when you had lost
your way.
Like the friend who touched your heart, when you didn't think you
had one to touch.
Angels come in all sizes and shapes, all ages and skin types.
Some with freckles, some with dimples, some with wrinkles, some
without.
They come disguised as friends, enemies, teachers, students, lovers and
fools.
They don't take life too seriously, they travel light.
They leave no forwarding address, they ask nothing in return.
They wear sneakers with gossamer wings, they get a deal on dry
cleaning.
They are hard to find when your eyes are closed, But they are
everywhere you look, when you choose to see.
God's Wings
An article in National Geographic several years ago provided a
penetrating picture of God's wings...
After a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park, forest rangers began
their trek up a mountain to assess the inferno's damage.
One ranger found
a bird literally petrified in ashes, perched statuesquely on the ground
at the base of a tree. Somewhat sickened by the eerie sight, he knocked
over the bird with a stick. When he struck it, three tiny
chicks scurried from under their dead mother's wings.
The loving mother, keenly aware of impending disaster, had carried her
offspring to the base of the tree and had gathered them under her wings,
instinctively knowing that the toxic smoke would rise. She could have
flown to safety but had refused to abandon her babies.
When the blaze had arrived and the heat had scorched her small body, the
mother had remained steadfast. Because she had been willing to die,
those under the cover of her wings would live.
"He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find
refuge" (Psalm 91:4)
Being loved this much should make a difference in your life. Remember
the One who loves you and then, be different because of it.
Please pass this on to others you care about. Don't drive faster than
your Guardian Angel can fly.
