Look Up

Look Up
“Believers, look up – take courage. The angels are nearer than you think.” – Billy Graham

A Thought
Angels can we see them?  Have you ever felt their presence?  There is an old expression, “I had an angel in my shoulder”.  We use this expression when something bad could have happened but didn’t happen. 

We know in the Bible angels played a significant role.  For example in the birth of Jesus – angels appears to Mary, Joseph and the Shepards. And Jesus himself spoke of angels, one example is in Matthew 26:53,    
“Don’t you realize that I could ask my Father for thousands of angels to protect us, and he would send them instantly?”

 

A Prayer

Dear Father

We thank you for the angels that are around us.  Even though we cannot see them there are many times we feel their presence.  We know they only come by your direction. So we thank you.

I think of the words in Hebrews 13:2. “Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!” I pray that I am able to show love and kindness to all those I encounter.  For as Hebrews states I may never know who is that angel.

In Jesus name we pray.

Amen.
