Page 15 My French acquaintances were about the same age as some of my sisters and so they fit in quite well with the family. We stayed until afternoon of the following day and than I took them across the bridge to Canada. Just over the bridge we said good-bye and they thanked me for sharing my family with them. Than Jesus asked, “You are Angel?”
“No, I am not an Angel.” I said, for the third time since starting my journey.
“Yes, you are Angel for me.” He responded, as he picked up his backpack and started to walk away.
Those words stuck in my mind as I made the half days journey back to my family home in the lower peninsula of Michigan and by the time I arrived in Hudsonville, I was convinced that what all of them were seeing was not really me or even an Angel, but GOD’S Love for them, through me. The Words of 1 Corinthians 13 were actually beginning to manifest themselves within my life, just as GOD had promised. From that beginning GOD has led me around the world, showing me people whom HE has chosen to be HIS, of all Nationalities and Religions. They are easy to recognize because they follow, some knowingly and others unknowingly, the Commandment that Jesus gave us just before HIS Death.
NIV BIBLE JN 13:34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." __________ __ __________ Once, when I was very young, I lived in the surrealistic world of Christianity. I felt safe there, protected by the Family of GOD and His Right-hand Men who were never more than a Sunday away. Things were black and I was White and that was all that mattered; my how time has changed things. I do not regret leaving that world, though safety and security have been replaced by the uncertainty of reality. Yet through it all GOD has been there and even though I have left religion behind I find in HIM strength far greater than I have ever known. I would encourage everyone to look beyond the place you are, to find refuge not in the Mega Entertainment Centers but in the stillness of your inner soul, for there is where you will find HIM.
