An Angel’s Presence

I want to share a beautiful story and one that stands as proof that there is, indeed, truth to the creed that I write about. Everything you are about to read really happened and is written exactly as it occurred.

I have a friend, a beautiful soul, who has been in deep despair. Despair is a hard and difficult cross to bear no matter where it comes from. My friend’s despair, which had another origin, was furthered fueled by excruciating pain resultant from a fall on concrete that she recently took. I was awakened to her plight and invested many hours in reaching for guidance in an effort to help lift this soul back up to an enlightened state. When I tell you I felt inadequate in dealing with this type of despondency, I am not exaggerating . Yet, despite my feeling unqualified, I felt like I was being called upon to lift this soul.

I put on a full-court press in calling to the Divine One. I asked for my friend to be able to ‘receive abundance’ in every sort of way. My prayer plead was such that I requested she benefit by knowing her value, beauty and worthiness without question. I reached out to her many times a day to deliver the uplifting messages I was requesting on her behalf. And, truthfully I wasn’t sure if I was getting the messages through, yet I persevered .

The doctor was finally able to see my friend today. There were many worries on her mind concerning the logistics in getting to doctor as my friend is alone. Together we approached each fear – from a parking space close by to the long walk down the corridor in the building. My friend also had a sense of hopelessness that this doctor would even be able to help in easing her agonizing and unbearable pain. I asked the Almighty to lift these fears she had, and then trusted that we would be delivered whatever was needed. Here’s what happened…

Upon arriving at the doctor – the parking lot was full with the exception of one spot which was in very close proximity to the door making the walk a short one. Next, my friend’s pain lifted as if by miracle (no pun intended), and she made her way down the corridor uneventful. Then, waiting in line to sign-in, my friend felt a brush over her arm and turned to look into the eyes of the person behind her in line who was a very relatable soul – a gentleman with a beatific smile and a soft voice. She said, as they conversed a feeling of comfort fell over her. Each sentence of conversation they exchanged seemed to highlight the connection being established between them. After several minutes of exchange, her place in line became available, and as she turned her attention to the receptionist this kind man reached down and squeezed her arm and said “Everything is going to turn out fine.” (hmmm…touched by an angel?) Moments later, after my friend signed-in she turned back to thank the man and he was gone. Nowhere in sight. Vanished in 10 seconds or less. How could that be – the waiting room was jammed full – and to make it through the crowd and reach the door in record time? Is that even possible? For an angel it is.

But wait, the story is not over. When my friend went into the doctor’s inner office to wait to see the physician her fears and anxiety of hopelessness returned. Next up, the kind doctor appeared and began his exam. He listened intently as my friend described the idiopathic yet piercing pain she was experiencing. Nodding, the doctor said to her, I know what you have – it is a ruptured medial [something or other] and proceeded to describe the pain, its path and its intensity in perfect manner. My friend was dumbstruck. ‘How do you know’, she asked and the sagely doctor responded ‘I know because I have had the exact same condition even though mine did not result from a fall but from being a life-long runner.’ Don’t worry, I fixed mine and I will fix yours.’ And, just like that the spirit of my friend, this beautiful soul, was lifted from deep, deep despair to exalted triumphant joy.

I am glad my friend is a believer. Now, more than ever. And for me? The validation of knowing my prayers were being delivered and at just the right time leaves me with such exhilaration and glee that I can hardly contain myself!

And, that folks, is what I have been talking about!!
