Along Came an Angel- Book Review
Posted by Melissa at 7:13 pm in Blogging, Contests, Inspiration, Media, Stuff

Have you ever: narrowly missed being in an accident, had a series of circumstances turn out just right at just the right time, felt protected even though you seemed to be all alone, or had a ’stranger’ come to your aid just when it was needed the most? Throughout the bible, angels are credited with aiding people in the most dire of circumstances, in their greatest hour of need. Angels didn’t just visit people of the bible, they visit everyday people like you and me, everyday.

If you need inspirational stories, especially stories that restore your faith and lift you up out of your circumstances, then; Along came an Angel is just what you need.

    Just dropping by to greet my fellow tour hosts.

    I am enjoying these stories too and reading what everyone else has to say. Not being much of a TV or newspaper person I don’t run into as much of the stuff you metion in the media as some probably but still unfortunately stumble across it from time to time and i agree that books like this are a pleasant alternative to what we are most often offered by the media.

    This book sounds amazing. I do believe in Angels and have had things happen to my family that leads me to believe this. I love inspirational books, so this is right up my alley.

    Thanks so much for sharing.

    I am loving this blog tour, too.

    I think this would be a terrific book to read. I don’t have any personal angel stories but do believe a gaurdian angel is always with me!

    God is an amazing God, and His angels are a treat for us to experience. I have several angel stories.

    Once, when I was 22 years old, leaving a Calvary Chapel Downey Wednesday night church service at 9pm, I saw large woman waiting at the bus stop. I heard the Lord tell me to give her a ride. I argued with God, stating I only had enough gas to get home and wouldn’t have any more money until my check was automatically deposited the next morning. As I continued driving towards the freeway in disobedience, my heart pounded harder and harder until I could stand it no longer. I turned around. She was still at the bus stop, so I parked in the parking lot behind a small building that blocked her view of me, but I could see ahead if a bus came. I asked the Lord to prove to me in His word that He definitely wanted me to give her a ride. The verse Hebrews 13:2 came to mind. When I looked it up I read, “Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels.” Quickly I drove around the corner now eager to pick her up, since a bus had not come by. I prayed God would increase the gas in my car as I rounded the corner. But to my surprise, she wasn’t there. I sped down the street to make sure there wasn’t a bus, but I never saw one. She had just vanished.

    O.K. since you asked, I tell you another event:

    After driving 12 hours home from vacation, it was 1am. I was driving south on Hwy 5 through Camp Pentelton and my family was asleep in the car. I could see the Oceanside pier lit in the distance indicating we were almost home. I was having trouble staying awake, but I didn’t want to stop being so close to home. After trying to sing out loud, and turn the cold air-conditioning on my face, I prayed that God would keep me awake long enough to get us home safely. God prompted me to look in the passenger rear view mirror, and to my amazement a silhouette of a being (head, shoulders, body in a gown, not flowing:) was traveling with our Chevy Suburban on the right rear fender. “OH! WOW!” I exclaimed out loud, waking my husband who asked if everything was alright. I told him what just happened, but he went back to sleep before I could finish. But now I was FULLY awake, with no chance of nodding off from the excitement of what I just witnessed.

    Thanks for asking. I hope someone is blessed by God’s great care and guidance, leading them to trust He is mighty to save.
