MIRACLES NEVER CEASE!
Rev. Robert L. Wise, Ph.D. explores the world of divine interventions from an objective point of view. An Archbishop in the Communion of Evangelical Episcopal Churches with a Ph.D., Rev. Wise relates his interviews with persons who experienced the touch of God.
ANGELIC INTERVENTIONS SAVE THE DAY!
Americans believe in angels! Along with convictions about heaven and prayer, 67% of the entire population believe in angels. Of those with a religious affiliation, 84% believe in the angelic realm. You’re in a popular crowd if you affirm the same.
As I wander around the countryside picking up experiences of divine intervention, I often run into people who have had encounters with angels – which is certainly miraculous. Recently, I ran into a story about an encounter that happened to Sarah Loutner in Springfield, Tennessee. Today, Sarah Loutner is a dancer and performs routines with a Christian message. At the time, Sarah was only a small child.
The Loutner family lived in an old two-story farm house. Like any older house that had been built years before, the staircase was steep. As was the custom in by-gone days, the stairs angled up partway to a landing, then turned 90 degrees before going up the rest of the way to the top. Sarah had a special place upstairs where she played with her toys. On this afternoon, she tired of playing with the dolls and wondered what her mother might be doing. Probably, she was down in the kitchen where cookies might be waiting. Sarah pushed the playthings aside and hurried toward the steps.
Pre-occupied in thinking about where her mother might be, Sarah didn’t pay attention to the abruptly sloping stairs. Her feet got tangled up, and Sarah fell head first down the plunging steps.
Like a scene in a slow-motion movie, Sarah discovered a figure standing on the landing. The man towered above the steps. Big and powerful, he appeared to be surrounded by a shimmering glow. The light swirled around him and Sarah immediately felt reassurance that she didn’t have to be afraid.
To her total surprise, Sarah realized that she was not falling, but seemed to be floating toward the unknown figure on the landing. Unseen hands carryied her downward until finally her feet landed gently on the floor. She knew that an angel had intervened to save her.
When she looked up, the angel was gone. Sarah ran to tell her mother what had happened. She listened, but Sarah distinctly felt she didn’t believe her. Years later, when Sarah, her brother Aaron, and her mother got off on the subject of angels, Sarah recounted the experience. This time her mother was convinced a guardian angel had indeed intervened, but wasn’t sure why an angel would have secured her.
Sarah’s brother Aaron immediately added, “You’re a dancer! You were caught so you could dance for God.”
Just thinking about her brother’s response, makes Sarah want to dance today. You also have a guardian angel. No matter what you are struggling with, just thinking about that protection might do the same for you!
Remember. Miracles never cease.
