IT WAS ANGELIC. I WAS 12 YRS OF AGE AND A VICIMT OF CHILD OF THE WORST KIND FROM AGE 2 TIL I WAS 18. IT WAS DECEMBER OF 59 AND I WAS NOTHING MORE THAN A MERE MAID TO THE FAMILY THAT 'ADOPTED' ME. I HAD NO COAT AND ONLYY 1 & 1/2 HOURS TO SHOVEL THE EQUIVILENT OF A SQUARE BLOCK OD HEAVY WET SNOW THAT WAS 5 FEET IN DEPTH. IT WAS RAINING AND I WAS FREEZING AND I KNEW I FACED THE RAGE OF MY 'FATHER' IF IT WASN'T DONE. I HAD DONE 1/4 OF IT AND STOPPED TO CATCH MY BREATH AND TRY TO WARM MY HANDS UP A BIT. THEY WERE BLUE AS THE REST OF MY EXPOSED SKIN FROM THE COLD BUT I KNEW I HAD NO CHOIDE. AS I TURNED BACK TO WORK I FELT A WARM HAND ON MY SHOULDER AND TURNED TO SEE THE HANDSOMEST MAN I HAD EVER SEEN. HE RADIATED WITH A GOLDEN LIGHT AND HIS SMILE WARMED YOU. HE ASKED WHY I WAS OUT IN SUCH WEATHER DOING THIS AND I TOLD HIM. HE SLIPPED OFF HIS JEAN JACKET AND WRAPPED IT AROUND MY SHOULDERS HE WAS ALSO DRESSED IN A RED FLANNEL SHIRT, JEAN PANTS AND COWBOY BOOTS. HE WAS ABOUT 6' TALL AND HAD SHORT CURLY HAIR AND THE BLUEST EYES I HAVE EVER SEEN. HE GENTLY ORDERED ME INTO THE HOUSE SAYING HE WOULF FINISH IT FOR ME. I SAID NO THE NEGHBORS WOULD TELL ON ME AND I WOULD GET BEATEN. HE GENTLY SAID 'DON'T WORRY'. I RELUCTENTLY AGREED AND AS I TURNED TO GO INTO THE HOUSE I NOTICED THAT THE ONLY FOOTPRINTS I SAW WERE MY OWN AND THE ONES WHERE HE STOOD..NO MORE FROM THE DIRECTION HE CAME FROM. I THOUGH THAT STRANGE BECAUSE IT WAS TOTALLY DEVOID OF CARS AND PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER. IN CLINTON, MASS YOU COULD SEE FOR MILES IN ANY DIRECTION AND THERE WAS TOTAL SILENCE.I WENT INTO THE HOUSE AFTER HE PROMISED TO COME IN AND HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT AND DRINGK TO WARM HIM. I TRIED TO GIVE HIM HIS COAT BEFORE GOIN IN AND HE REFUSED SAYING THAT gOD'S LOVE WAS KEEPING HIM WARM.. THIS I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND. ANYWAY AFTER I CHANGED CLOTHES WHICH TOOK ABOUT 30 MINUTES I LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW AND COULDN'T SEE HIM AND THOUGHT 'OH GREAT A PRACTICAL KOKER AND I AM IN REAL TROUBLE NOW !' I WAS WRONG. HE HAD COMPLETED IT AND KNOCKED ON THE KITCHEN DOOR AS I RETURNED TO THE KITCHEN. I TOLD HIM I WAS SORRY I COULDN'T PAY HIM AND HE SAID 'NO NEED TO' . WE TALKED ABOUT gOD AND IN THE DAYS AND MONTHS THAT FOLLOWED HE ALWAYS SEEM TO BE AROUND WHEN I NEEDED HIM TIL ONE DAY JUST BEFORE I STARTED HIGH SCHOOL HE TOLD ME HIS WORK HWAS DONE AND HE HAD LEAVE. I WAS HEARTBROKEN..HE SAID HE WAOULD ALWAYS BE THERE EVEN IF I COULDN'T SEE HIM. AGAIN IT WAS A STRANGE DAY... NOT A CAR OR PERSON AROUND FOR MILES AND HE ASKED ME TO WALK FORWARD AND NOT LOOK BACK TIL I GOT TO THE CORNER. WHEN HE SAID THAT I REMEMBERED THE STORY OF LOT AND HIS WIFE FROM THE BIBLE AND I THOUGHT IT STRANGE I WOULD THINK OF IT NOW AT THIS MOMENT. BUT I DID AND WHEN I TURNED AROUND HE HAD VANISHED AS QUICKLY AS HE HAD APPEARED. THE STORY HAS MORE DETAIL BUT TO SAVE SPACE..I SHORTENED IT. LATER ON IN LIFE I WOULD REALIZE THAT THIS WAS MY FIRST ANGEL ENCOUNTER AND IT WOULD BE ONE OF THE MANY ANGEL,MIRACLE AND NDE'S EXPERIENCES I WOULD HAVE IN TH 51 YEARS OF MY LIFE. GOD IN HIS INFINITE WISDOM AND LOVE FINDS A WAY TO HELP US WHEN WE NEED IT THE MOST. HE IS ALWAYS THERE AND IF THIS STORY HELPS JUST ONE PERSON..THAT WOULD BE A TRUE BLESSING ! How it changed my life:HOW IT HAS CHANGE MY LIFE? GOOD QUESTION. IT HAS MADE ME REALIZE THAT THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD MATTER LITTLE AND THOSE THINGS OF HEAVEN MEAN ALOT IT HAS ALSO GIVEN ME THE KNOWLEDGE THAT GOD IS ALWAYS THERE WE ONLY HAVE TO SEEK HIM. FOR ME THRU ALL THE HELL I HAVE BEEN THROUGH IT HAS GIVEN ME THE ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND AND HAVE THE COMPASSION TO HEL ANYONE IN AND GIVEN SITUATION IN THEIR LIVES. PERHAPS THAT IS MY TASK WHILE I AM HERE AND WHAT GOD SENT ME TO DO. I ALWAYS HAVE. THIS WORLD IF FULL OF EVIL BUT IF YOU LOOK BEYOND THAT YOU CAN SEE THE BEAUTY OF GOD'S CREATION ANS KNOW HE IS ALL AROUND US
