Refer to Angels
Do you believe in Angels? If you ever ask me individually, my answer could be Yes.
In my previous post I pointed out about a lesson I learned in a journal called Signs of the Times. The highlight of this magazine this month is related to Angels. After my read, I had been intrigue because of the introduction story from a lady named Clara Barton, founder of the American Red Cross who regard herself as a deist.
While supervising a relief effort to the terrible spring flood on the Mississippi River on the deck of the riverboat Mattie Bell, she encountered a stranger right before departure from the river that was jammed with debris and submerged dangers. This unknown person was insisting on boarding the Mattie Bell. Clara had no 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 need to stop the storyline here. Will be continued in Refer to Angels #2. Should get the most beneficial weight loss supplements for a friend. It is an fitness machine.
Okay, so the stranger was shortly forgotten, for people were sailing through a tragic scene. The water was thick with the puffed up bodies of livestock, men, women, and children, all floating in the direction of the Gulf of Mexico. Near to sundown, Clara saw the stranger. Darkness fell and the boat was enveloped in a heavy fog that left them navigating the debris-filled river blind. Clara was terrified and regardless of herself, began to pray.
The stranger’s voice interrupted her. “Within moments the steamboat is going to be in a lethal chasm,” he said. “The captain won’t take notice of me. You must command him to pull back at once!” There was something concerning stranger’s tone that impressed Clara and she issued the order immediately. The captain anchored on the opposite side of the river.
At dawn, everybody saw the death they had narrowly escaped. How had the stranger known? Clara asked her staff to search for him in order that they could thank him but “he” is nowhere to be found. Until she died, Clara Barton considered that an angel had preserved the Mattie Bell.
Despite of the long article, I loved how the story illustrates unseen guardian angels inside our lives. Okay, need to go with a friend to search for prenatal vitamins. So happy for her despite how long we haven’t had the chance to see.
