My Angel


Do you believe in angels? Do they only exist in Heaven? What about on earth?

Here is a story of an angel appearing in front of me in human flesh.

As I have shared, these past couple months have been very difficult for me - even the past couple weeks my life has been turned upside down. I've had so many emotions run through my veins they could pop!

The feeling of being vulnerable is such a scary thing! Who wants anyone to know or see how much they are struggling? We have a pretty good game of putting on the face of happiness! People asking "How are you"- "Im doing great, thanks for asking"- Only deep down you know how much hurt is consuming your mind and body. Something that is difficult for anyone is opening up- being completely transparent. No masks to hide anything- laying it all on the table.

As this angel came to me- I let everything out, I confessed, I cried- I could hardly breath. I was at a point of complete surrender- putty in her hands. Broken. At this moment I didn’t even realize I was on my way to healing.
 
Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results. James 5:16

I believe in divine appointments and God putting certain people in our lives for different seasons- this was an appointment only given to me by the mercy of God. As I sat there in my brokenness, I was embraced with so much compassion, love and tenderness. I was encouraged, prayed over and was reminded how Christ took it all for me- he wiped my slate clean! She reminded me of how I am a daughter of the most high God, how He loves me, adores me and has forgiven me.

I can’t explain what was taking place in my heart while she showered me with love. It was Christ shining right through her speaking to me. In that moment I caught a glimpse of Him- what a beautiful experience even in the midst of the heavy tears pouring out.

Since this night a weight has been lifted from my shoulders- I feel alive and I feel new. I have had so much peace about the circumstances I have been struggling with that I could care less about "worrying" about them anymore. I have wrote so much about "Trusting" God – "Laying things at His feet"- I truly believe I am at that final point where I look to the clouds- smile and know My King is holding me tight and I am now able to receive what He has in store for me. I am receiving the healing He wanted to bring me- it was through His angel that I was able to embrace it and start the journey.

I want to thank my angel- For allowing God to use her in mighty ways; always being available to be used by the King. Reflecting what the greatest commandment says- LOVE! Her heart is filled with compassion and mercy. She is one of the most beautiful women I know – inside and out! Tender in her touch even with her spicy lil attitude that keeps you on your toes! I not only consider her my friend but a sister.

Thank you my dear sweet Brenda- You are the angel sent from God- to help restore my life and receive the healing God has wanted to give me!
 
Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. John 15:13
