Angels Are Scary

Some people will think that I'm crazy for writing this.  There are many people that choose to not believe in the supernatural, but I do because I've experienced having a spiritual, non-human being around me during my life-time on more than one occasion.

This is difficult to write about, but one of you reading this might need to read it today, so here you go..

When I was a child, my dad often sexually abused me at night time when I was asleep.  He would come into my room and lay with me in my bed.  One night, instead of my dad coming into the room, I saw an angel in my room standing and praying over me and my sister.  I was terrified of it.  I couldn't hardly look at it because I knew it was something that was very abnormal and that most people would never see.  I called my mom the other day to ask her about this incident and see if maybe it was her instead of an angel.  She told me that it may have been her, but that she did not remember.  I believe with everything that I am, even if it was my mother standing there, there was also a spiritual being there that was not of this world who was there to protect me. The abuse stopped shortly after that and my dad moved out.

Earlier this year I had another supernatural experience that I feel compelled to share.   I was on a morning jog and it was dark outside.  As I always do, when starting out the jog, I said a prayer for God to protect me.  After a bit, I was jogging along and heard a dog bark.  I didn't have headphones on, which I do not usually wear when I'm running in the dark due to safety precautions, but I still couldn't tell how close the dog was.  I felt fearful so I began to pray.  I prayed that God would immediately place a guardian angel beside me while I ran.  Within seconds, every hair on my head stood up and I FELT something beside me. I could not see it, but I knew that an angel was right there with me.

Some of you may never understand the depth of the love that God has for you, because you choose to not open your eyes to the world beyond the physical.  I have felt his love and protection throughout my life, so I get it.

Call me crazy, "unfriend" me if you want after this, but I had to share it with you.  God is real, and as my step-dad says, he knows your name and he wants to talk.
