Author Judith Vaughan: Do you believe in Angels?

Do you believe in Angels?

I do and I think that there are three types of angels, and I am one of them and more likely, you are one too.  Let me explain.

We all know the first type of Angels, the spiritual beings created by God, who serve God and are sent by God to deliver his message and to guard us when we seek guidance, comfort and reassurance. The ones that are send to us by God to answer our prayers, these spiritual messengers of peace give us hope, so if you believe and have faith as I do, then you have a guardian angel watching over you.  These are the Celestial Angels mentioned in the scriptures.

                           

The second type of Angels depends on your personal belief.   I like to think that when we lose someone we love, they become our personal Angels.  These Angels are special because they loved us at one time unconditionally, so they stick around and look after us in our time of need.  This might not be real or scientifically proven, but it is nice to believe that after their death, our loved ones are still a part of us.   I know some of you may not agree, but that is just my personal belief.  These I like to call Special Angels, and I have one too —my mom is my Special Angel. *winks*

Then there is also another type of Angels.  I’m talking about the ones that walk among us.  Yes, there is a little piece of heaven right here on earth. At one point in our life we will be touched by one, they are the Earth Angels, people that God placed in our paths to give us encouragement, love, skills and hope when we need it the most. 

Earth Angels come in all ages, gender, ethnicity and sizes, you may not recognize them because they have no wings, but they exist.  Earth Angels come in our time of need and help solve our problems, they are here to comfort you and inspire you, some are here to guide you and help you, some to teach you and encourage you, and some to love you and make you laugh.

Often people don’t realize that everything they do touch others. A simple smile can brighten up someone else's day, a kind and gentle word can make a difference in someone’s life, a tiny act of kindness can create a ray of sunshine and bring a smile to someone who is unfortunate. 

Everyone can always choose to be someone’s Earth Angel, you just need to reach out and touch someone.  I know I’m an Earth Angel because if you read this, I just touched you and made you smile.
