Touch of an angel

Lately, my brother's girlfriend- who is a dear friend to me- has been going through a very hard time. After a rough night last night, she was touched today and the story she told me literally sent goose bumps up my spine. So I will share the story.

A 70 year old man came into where I was working today and asked to use the phone. I allowed him to, and after making his phone call he came up to me and began talking. He spoke of God, saying I needed to trust him. He told me that good things happen to people even when times are very bad and I shouldn't be scared. He asked me if I had let God into my heart yet and I didn't respond. He proceeded to take my hand and pray for me, asking God to protect me. He said that God sent him, and he was an artist. He looked at me and told me I was a lost soul right now and that God would lead me. He said God won't take anyone to heaven if they aren't ready. He then wrote down a few verses on a piece of paper and went to his car, getting me a bible. I was so frustrated with what had been happening, and then today this man came in. The verse was about how I call for help and get no answer, and I'm asking for God to save me. He looked at me again and said how much I need God and he knew that this moment would change my life.

I've never personally experienced an encounter with an angel. Saying this, you always wonder if encounters do exist. But I now doubt nothing. My faith has been renewed.

This man KNEW what was occuring in her life. What she was feeling. What she needed to hear. It's not coincidental.

God works in mysterious ways. Every day he reveals his magic in beautiful experiences. I'm so thrilled to know that my brother is up in heaven with a man who can change so many lives and support so many people.
