Sunday's Gift



In dreams, the soul transcends the faculties of the body to hold divine communication with the angels.
- St. Athanasius



“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. ” Michelangelo (1475-1564);

Do you believe in angels?

All I know is that sometimes - I'm involved in a near miss of getting hurt - like a car accident - and it feels that someone out there is looking out for me. Plus they are Biblical. I believe Billy Graham believes in them too. I read his book once about them.

Then again - they might just take the form of being a friend . . .

Now the following video might make you cry, it will show you in a unique way - an up to date version of God and Jesus's relationship.

Happy Sunday.

Sandie

I do believe in Angels. I have had so many experiences in my life that I know they are around us. I also believe they come in the form of friends, just like you!

Sandie, I surely believe that Angels exsist. Whether in the form of a friend or an Angel God has sent to protect you. We had an Angel sent from God to live with us for 21 yrs. We always called her out Angel because she help form my sister and I into the people God wanted us to be. We learned that there were more important needs in life then just our wants.
Hope you have a Blessed day today.

Hi Sandie -

I noticed you on Sharon's blog and was interested about you so here I am on your blog!

Thank you for this piece. Your sentiments are interesting.

Yes, angels are indeed real. There is much expressed about them in the Bible. Isn't GOD wonderful to provide us such help in so many ways!

Thank you, Lord.

Stella said...

Yes, the bible tells us angels are real. And it's a good thing I had already been to church this morning before I watched the video because my makeup is now running down my cheeks.

Hi,
Before I even thought about angels being in our midst I always felt I had a golden star protecting me! Later I realized my golden star is an angel! Yes, I believe in angels!

Wow, Sandie, that video was my Sunday gift from the angel, Sandie! It was very powerful.

Truly, I believe in angels. They protect us from harm. I truly believe this with all of my heart and soul. Susan

I do believe there are angels because the Bible says so and I believe the Bible to be true! I do think though that they are definitely under God's rule and only do what he tells them to do. I experienced one event a long time ago that I believe was an angel God sent to help my brother fix his motorcycle. The guy was there one minute, fixing it and literally gone the next minute. He seemed to know what needed to get fixed. I'm sure there have been other angel involvements but this really still remains with me over 30 years later.

I had seen that story before; very good message about the wonderful gift God did by sending his son to die for our sins

I absolutely believe in angels. Such inspiration.

Sharon said...

I do believe in angels.

The Bible tells us that they are real. And it also tells us that we just might entertain them unawares!

They are not to be worshiped, as they are called to be messengers of the Lord - carrying out His work. But they are powerful allies - joining us in spiritual battle against unseen forces of evil.

GOD BLESS!

I think angels are all around. God's messengers of hope, comfort and peace.

YOU are an angel! xo, Cheryl

I most definitely believe in angels!!!
That was a sad video. What an excruciating decision to make.

Angela said...

Hey Sandie!

Yes, I do believe there are Angels! They come in many shapes and forms. I always pray for Angels to help those who need help when they are in the hospital and things like that. I believe that Angels help in the healing process.

No baby yet?

Have a Wonderful Week!
Angela

The video left me speechless.
It sums up my personal testimony in artistic form.

When I really and truly realized the sacrifice God made, it completely changed my life.

I'm still crying.
I love this.
