to sleep with the angels
7 Reasons. . . . . . . why many angelic encounters occur this way!
In a good mystery story, the villain’s identity remains hidden ‘til the end. So it is with angels who many times come in disguise, do a rescue, smile, walk way and vaporize into thin air.
There are 7 simple reasons why many angelic encounters occur this way.
1. As supernatural beings, the same laws do not govern them.
2. We think less kindly of them because they are so different. Who wants to brag about doing business with a weird, mystical, ghostlike person?
3. We are generally uncomfortable around awesome and glorious messengers.
4. They just don’t look like what you see portrayed in books. A winged what?
5. Sometimes you don’t even see them at all.
6. If you were going through a difficult time and you got merciful attention and guidance you don’t really like drawing a lot of outside attention to yourself.
7. Let’s face it, seeing an angel comes with a certain amount of discomfort in the associated culture shock.
1. As supernatural beings, the same laws do not govern them. How else could they appear in a locked room? or And as I said unto you, as they were going about rebelling against God, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto them; and he descended as it were in a cloud; and he spake as it were with a voice of thunder, which caused the earth to shake upon which they stood from Mosiah 27: 11; or shakes you out of your sleep, or vaporizes when he is done.
2. We think less kindly of them because they are so different. Who wants to brag about doing business with a weird, mystical, ghostlike person? It doesn’t matter that angels use multi-media in their presentations to reason with people and to teach. Just try explaining to anyone anything you learned from an angel.
3. We are generally uncomfortable around awesome and glorious messengers. That’s why they usually start out by telling us not to be afraid. They know that even in their best disguise it is frightening just to be around them. It is great to be saved, protected and comforted if they just weren’t so awesome.
4. They just don’t look like what you see portrayed in books. A winged what? Some angels walk among us, one may carry a fishing reel or a briefcase, go by the name Johnny, Jill or Mark Angeli, mom or dad, brother or sister, or husband or wife. When you have a problem, they have a solution even if it isn’t the way we think it should be. They rarely identify themselves as an angel of any kind. They prefer the glory to be their Boss’.
5. Sometimes you don’t even see them at all. Most times, they’re probably invisible, conducting their work trans-dimensionally or remotely. Who can be afraid of something they don’t see? Angels love whispering secrets and whistling in the dark… Angels are the guardians of hope and wonder, the keepers of magic and dreams…
6. If you were going through a difficult time and you got merciful attention and guidance you don’t really like drawing a lot of outside attention to yourself. Angels know “love” is the only four-letter word…and apply it in all its variations and are pure of heart. Angels watch over you, are always present, often showing us the right way of doing or saying things.
7. Let’s face it, seeing an angel comes with a certain amount of discomfort in the associated culture shock. If it isn’t fear or guilt then we have to put it down to feeling strange around weird happenings. I would guess that if seeing an angel were an everyday thing then there wouldn’t be any shock at all. If we busied ourselves doing good things then someday we might also discover that we are all “angels in training; all we have to do is open our wings and fly...”
