“For There Stood By Me
The Angel of God…
Whose I Am.”

These words of Paul’s were penned in description of his trip from Crete, when a storm rose in the Adriatic.

Read those words again from Acts 27:23.

Do you know this has been the case with you
many times…and you might not have known it.

The God Who guided Paul guides you.

The Spirit that guided Paul, guides you.

The Angel of God Who stood by Paul…..
stands by you.

In 1988 on the way home from Church and from engaging in a spiritual struggle…the car in front of me swerved left leaving me open to hitting a car parked on the freeway. Traveling at 60mph+
I swiped the car and retained control of mine.

At that speed,
with that velocity and possibility…
I could have hit the parked vehicle head on and been severely injured or worse,

I was not.

I believe with all my heart that ” there stood by me
The Angel of God whose I am”.

Two weeks ago in Atlanta, crossing a street next to CNN I stepped out, knowing that the traffic was coming from the right…
and happened to look left.
It possibly saved my life
as I saw a vehicle coming the wrong way…
and hopped back onto the curb.

Was I being protected?

I believe so.

The Angel of God protects you more than you know.

You have stories like these as well

He protects and guides not only our physical bodies…
but our minds and hearts at the same time and in similar ways.

Ways are paved for us to walk away from temptations.

Scripture comes to our remembrance to direct our choices.

People and relationships are in our lives to support us and lift us when we fall or are in grief.

The Spirit of God guides you daily…
Just hear Him and be aware.

He cares for us as we do for little children….
watching and being aware.

As he had intentions for Paul to be in Rome.

He has intentions for us.

“There stands by me
The Angel of God,
whose I am.”
