WOYWW: Angels Watching Over Me!

Here is my entry for the messiest desk on 

What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday!

My journal in the middle (courtesy of several cups 

of Starbucks coffee!),

on the right of it is a USB with the 2nd episode 

of Downton Abbey 4, courtesy of my niece,

on top of that is my son's new design of a small notebook

for our gift shop,

the little yellow bottle is Pyralvex

 (because I have a little sore

on my tongue I am nursing diligently),

and on the left, my little painting for yesterday's

first post for 31 Days.

"For to His angels He has given command about you

that they may guard you in all your ways."

Psalm 91:11

I don't think much about angels,

but I do know they are nothing like 

the cherubic images we see

in figurines or children's books!

They are WARRIORS!!!

I like to think of having my own set of warriors

following me and guarding me-

or at least one of them anyway!!!

There are a whole lot of verses 

about angels in the Bible,

273 to be exact.

The word "angel" comes from the 

Greek aggelos which

means messenger.

God sends angels to protect us (Exodus 23, Psalm 34:7),

patrol the earth like watchmen in the night (Zech. 1:10),

remove dangers (Mt. 13:14),

and send God's messages to us.

Perhaps we don't recognize their voice

like Joseph or Job,

but they minister to us the same way

they ministered to Jesus after the 

devil tempted Him in Matthew 4:11.

We can read in Hebrews 1:14 that

angels are ministering spirits

sent to serve those who will inherit salvation.

Once I was very near an accident.

A truck crashed into a car in front of him.

The car was right beside us and could have

veered towards us.

My husband was watching helplessly

from the rear view mirror as he saw the truck 

bump the car.

I heard the crash and turned to see the car's hood

crushed underneath the big truck in front.

Amazingly no one was hurt in this accident! 

I think angels were at work there!

Thank you Lord for the warrior angels you send to 

protect us and our loved ones,

and also minister to us when we need it!
