The Hands from Heaven

Several years ago, a fellow teacher told me this story. When her middle child was two years old, she was diagnosed with leukemia. This child had the form that more commonly strikes adults and even today doctors have difficulty saving those struck with this type(AML).

One night, when her little daughter running 110 temperature lay near death with her doctors at a loss as to what to do next, her mother said she saw a pair of hands appear from nowhere. These hands lifted her precious child from the bed and held her.

Then, the hands gently placed her back on the bed. "I knew from that instant forward that she was going to live," she told me.

As she was telling me the story, this girl was away at college and lives yet today, completely free of any symptoms of the disease.

Guardian angel (spirit)

"Guardian Angel" (Schutzengel) (1840), by Matthäus Kern.

A guardian angel is a angel who protects and guides a particular person. br>
The belief that God sends a spirit to watch every individual was common in Ancient Greek philosophy, and Plato alludes to it in Phaedo, 108.

Similarly, the belief appears in the Old Testament, although it is not specifically articulated nor delineated. The belief that angels can be guides and intercessors for men appears in Job 33:23-6, and in the Book of Daniel (specifically Daniel 10:13) angels seem to be assigned to certain countries. In this latter case the “prince of the Persian kingdom” was referring to one of the fallen angels also known to many as a demon. The same verse mentions “Michael, one of the chief princes,” and Michael is one of the few angels named in the Bible. In the schemata of angels developed in later literature, Michael is an archangel. The Book of Enoch, part of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church's canon of scripture, says that God will "set a guard of holy angels over all the righteous" (1En 100:5).

In Matthew 18:10, Jesus says of children: "See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven" (New International Version). This is often understood to mean that children are protected by guardian angels.

In Acts 12:12-15 there is another allusion to the belief that a specific angel is assigned to protect each individual. After Peter had been escorted out of prison by an angel, he went to the home of 'Mary the mother of John, also called Mark'. The servant girl, Rhoda, recognized his voice and ran back to tell the group that Peter was there. However the group replied, "It must be his angel"'site stats
(12:15).

I love angel stories (truths) because I do not want to ever take for granted them or God's love for me!

What a wonderful experience to have witnessed and to have a child saved! I have no doubt in the truth of this, for I believe.

Such a wonderful story! Yes, I do believe that angels do watch out for us sent by God.

That is quite a story there.
This is so nice when people have a lot of faith.
At times wish that I could feel this way about it.
That was lovely.
