TUESDAY ANGEL STORIES
Angels at Bob Evans
My husband and I stopped at a local Bob Evans for supper one evening. While waiting for our order to arrive, I glanced around the room. My gaze happened upon a young woman with two girls whose ages I guessed to be five and six.
I noticed that the older of the two children was surrounded by at least a dozen rainbow colored angels of all shapes and sizes.
I felt strongly impressed to strike up a conversation with the lady about the angel presence. Common sense and logic quickly chimed in and proceeded to talk me out of it. My gut kept churning and I knew I’d not sleep that night if I did not try and talk with the lady. After all, she was a complete stranger. If I made a fool out of myself, I’d never see her again.
So, mustering up all my courage, I sidled up alongside her at the checkout. I decided the best approach would be to come straight to the point.
“Excuse me,” I said “Do you mind if I ask you if you believe in angels?”
“Why, yes I do” she replied.
“Then would you mind if I told you about the angels around this older of the two girls who is your daughter I presume?” I replied.
“Go right ahead” she encouraged.’
So, I told her about the troupe of rainbow colored angels and how they were operating in her life. Then with a sigh of relief, I said silently to Spirit “There I did it”.
The thought had not yet cleared my brain when I felt my stomach turning as I heard the woman’s voice say “How lovely. Now what can you tell me about the younger girl?”
I had seen nothing as I was so focused on the older girl’s entourage. I shifted my feet feeling awkward and took another look. Feeling quite embarrassed and hoping for a soon and speedy retreat, I apologized and said “She only has one small green angel who appears to be hugging her heart”.
A tear rolled down the woman’s cheek as she embraced me and said “She’s waiting for a heart transplant”.
