I
remember one night, my wife had been troubled by something, she finally
came to bed after having stayed up for a while. She had been sound asleep
for some time now and it would only be a few hours later that she would
wake up only to be startled by some sort of shape or figure standing
over our bed. As she realized what it was, she was astonished at how
large the figure had been. To her amazement, all she could do was to
stare.
What
my wife had seen was an angel standing directly over our bed looking
down on the both of us. She didn't quite know what to make of it but
after having experienced this, she came to the conclusion that God had
sent an angel to minister to her in her time of need.
We
have had many visitations in our household revealing God's love and
compassion toward us and this had proven to be another one of His ways
to comfort my wife in a time of distress. God not only commands His
angels to watch over and protect us but He also has given them the ability
to minister to us as well.
"Praise
be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion
and of the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles,
so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves
have received from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
