From My Heart
Louise Gibson
When something happens that is unexplainable,
and excites our inner core-
It leaves you with a sense of awe,
and the desire to know more.
God tells us that “He will put His holy angels
in charge of us, to keep us in all our ways”-
At the time we are being challenged, though- negative thoughts create a haze.
I was driving home alone one night,
not late, but it was dark.
To avoid a lot of traffic I took a back road
where activity was stark.
I have driven this path many times,
But always during the day.
“As fate would have it, I missed my turn
but continued on my way.
It was a dark night, but street lights were few-
Suddenly I was filled with dread!
The road seemed to come to an end, and
dense woods were straight ahead.
“Dear Lord, I need your help,
I don’t know what to do.
There seems to be a ditch on either side,
and trees ahead obstruct my view.”
Two bright lights appeared ,
as a truck came into sight-
“Out of the woods, at this hour?
Lord, your Angel saved the night!
An angel? Yes, I have no doubt.
What other reason could there be
By His bright lights, I turned around
and continued on home safely
I was going to follow the truck a ways,
but it disappeared from sight.
Mission accomplished!!
An angel truly saved the night!
Psalm 34:4 “I sought the Lord, and He answered me
and delivered me from all my fears”.
