Angels

I don't consider myself to be someone pre-occupied with angels. In fact, I really have never focused too much on them, but sure they probably do exist.

I have been alone a lot these past few weeks, and God has gone out of His way to make sure I know that I'm not.

About 2 weeks ago, I had a check in my spirit, and several warnings from outside sources to be careful on the road...especially NEVER to text while driving. I headed the warning, and a couple of days into the week I was at a traffic light when I heard someone say "Hey!". It was an older man who assured me he was not trying to flirt with me and then with a serious tone said, "Hon, you really need to be careful on the road. I'm serious."

The next interesting incident was the other day. I was walking into a clothing store, with no one behind me or around me--the door shut, and the clerk said, "Hi, how are ya'll doing today?". I didn't really think too much about it until the next morning in my quiet time when I read Psalm 34:7 which says, " The Angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and delivers them." Immediately I thought of the clerk and what she said.

I am not alone! Several other things have confirmed to me that I am experiencing divine protection.

And while I am still not too pre-occupied with angels, I'm sure glad they are around.

Oh, by the way after I started typing this post (I am in a coffee shop) "Arms of the Angels" started playing.
