Living in Fort St. John while wonderful, was a long trip from Ontario. Every summer, we would pack up our car and make the long drive. One year, on our way back to B.C. when we decided to stop for lunch. We piled out of our brand new car. It was amazing to be driving such a wonderful reliable car. We ate our meal and piled back into the car. It was a beautiful sunny day. The car did NOT start! That was a real shock to all of us! The car was brand new! Bill looked under the hood, we had lots of gas. So, we prayed together as a family. About 5 minutes had passed when we tried and the car started. It was really weird.

We started down the highway and after driving 5-8 minutes, right before us was a semi truck in the ditch and cars smashed and people everywhere, some with serious injuries. It was with sobering realization that we would very likely have been in that same accident if our car had started as it should have. That car never failed to start again, only that one time.

If we could have seen with our spiritual eyes, I believe we would have seen an angel doing something to our engine. I have no idea. Whatever happened, we were spared untold harm to our family. I have never seen an angel, but I have been the recipient of their ministry.

Psalm 119: 11-12 “ For He will command His angels concerning you and guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone”.

In these days of a virus that is frightening to many and endless hand-washing, it is good to know that we not only have God watching over us, but some angels also are really busy. If only we could see them!!!

Stay safe my friends.
