I think I am an Angel

So I told my girls I think I am an angel, they laughed.  I remember being in the truck with my grandfather (Grand-daddy Hugh) I was roughly 9 years old.  I was telling him the same thing and that I was going to get into heaven simply because my nickname is "Angel" his response to me at the time was, "why do you believe that"? I responded because my nickname is Angel so I must be and I’m going to heaven. My grandfather, one of the wisest man I knew, responded to me with "your actions and how you treat others will determine if you get into heaven not your name."  

As I have gotten older I still believe I’m an Angel, maybe in training. People often see things in me that I often don’t see in myself or highlight things I do that I do not for recognition but because it is in my nature to do them, I think nothing of it.  I pray for others and notice the Lord making movements and progression.  I learn quickly where I go wrong with things.  I noticed that when I pray earnestly,  I see the response.  Then sometimes when I pray at the last minute,  because I don’t want to go to bed without praying,  I don’t feel like I get the same results. Therefore when I pray, I try to take the time to focus, be intentional and pray earnestly.  God still provides though I stumble and fall almost on a daily basis in my Christian walk but in my heart I strive to do good, that people right and listen to that inner voice. I will keep trying to be a blessing to other people.  I still believe that I am an angel and that my purpose in life is to bring light and knowledge.  Help other people to share their gifts and talents.  To share my experience with God with other people. I had a church member once tell me people are drawn in by my face.  I’ve often wondered why because on several occasions I’ve been simply a person in a crowd and people have called me out to say that they see things in me or that God has a plan for me or that they see something special in me.  I am what I truly believe to be...... an angel in training.

Be a blessing to someone!!
