Well, except that L.A.'s brown "fog" is smog and not sand.
I had forgotten that you had lived in warm country. Why on earth did you go back to the cold? LOL!
Amazing.Reminds me of an interview I did many years ago.A little boy was very ill and in a coma at the hospital here in Philadelphia.The parents were told to pray to St John Neumann.They were told he was close to death and went down to the chapel,a little boy walked in and looked around and left.The doctors were in the room at the same time and a little boy walked in the room and they said who are you.He said my Mother sent me.The sick little boy sat up in the bed cured.A few months later his mother took him to the St John Neumann shrine in thanksgiving,in a side room was a picture of a little boy-St John Neumann.The mother said he was the one who came into the chapel-she took the picture to the doctors and he was the one who came into the room but the amazing part of this is the little boy who was cured said Mommy that is my friend from my dream-he told me I would be OK.I met them both.

> God does use angels to help us at times.
And by the way, my dream "visit" was vital later in the adoption process. If you hang out in adoption circles, you know the heartaches that can arise if the medical/social conditions of the orphaned children exceed the ability of a adopting family to cope (or so it perceives). I know folks who have taken multiple visits overseas and in the end walked away from the process short of adoption because medical risks seemed too high, or the process became otherwise too onerous. And I can't fault those folks a bit. One has to be prepared to commit, and if the level of perceived commitment is too high, because of circumstances beyond the family's control, walking away may be the best thing.
In our case, we eventually came to a point where we had to make a decision, after going to the orphanage. And while our initial visit with our future daughter was reassuring enough, we received, in the final hours, translated documents of her medical & family history. It was truly shocking and scary on all counts. It was then that the earlier reassurance of the angel in my dream played a key point in pushing us to go ahead with the process.
Certainly, we have had our share of challenges in the intervening years, but I remain firmly convinced that God gave us what we could handle, and that we were guided in that process every step of the way.
Hi Ms.B,How are you.All ready for your big trip:)
Thanks for the quick resolution to the Scriptural query. Straight from Jesus' mouth. Can't get better than that.
Wow! That's weird.
Even though this incident of my Mom's angelic interaction happened to me...I don't remember anything with a white bearded man and going to heaven. I was only three then, and now being 42, remembering yesterday can be a challenge, though. 8^)
I think alot of people want to have a miraculous interaction with an angel, but when you think about it, most of the interactions I've heard of, occur during a crisis. I wouldn't mind having a angelic interaction (that I remember) but I don't want it to be because my children are dieing or something. Maybe if they just came by for coffee some morning, that would be cool. 8 )
