Emissaries from Heaven

On the eve of every religious holiday I began to become more religious in my thinking. Easter has always been the religious period that has dominated my feelings about God and everything that goes along with the bible. God is kind of like a president, God being the president of the universe. The average Joe never gets in to see the president but can visit with his emissaries from time to time. That's just how the Big Kahuna works in our lives and you never know when one of those visits is about to happen. He sends his emissaries in the form of angles but what exactly are angles? Are they real?
Angles are often seen in flowing robs. Sometimes they look like humans with wings and are always dressed in white. They are close to God so if you believe in God you must believe in angles. Even if you have never seen an angle there certainly have been times in your life when you have felt you were surrounded by demons yet you were able to walk past the gates of Hell without so much as a sound.
I like the ideal that someone is watching over me. If the world wants to call them angles that's OK with me because I am sure an angle or two has saved my ass more than once. I definitely believe there is a spiritual force out there, I don't have to see a human with wings dressed in white to believe in that force. There is just too much stuff that happens to us that we can't explain or stuff we try to chalk up to coincidence for us not to believe something is controlling our destiny.
I can hear you now, "If you believe in angles I guess you believe in Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer"! Real or imagined it makes no difference I am still going to watch Clarence earn his wings by helping out George Baily every year in It's a Wonderful Life.
For all us less than halo worthy creatures, knowing that something can move from heaven to earth and bring with it our mothers wishes is very comforting. When ever I find people who inspire me, people who motivate me or people who comfort me I am touching an angle in some way. Angles really occur in life as often as you want them to so this Easter I will celebrate angles in what ever form they may take.
