Book Description
Children are known to have wild imaginzations, which explains why their stuffed animals talk and invisible friends get invited to tea parties. So it's no wonder than when a child reports a personal encounter with an angel, adults tend to dismiss it with a wry smile and say, "That's nice, sweetie. Why don't you go outside and play?" But Joan Wester Anderson says "not so fast." If Jesus himself taught that the kingdom of heaven belongs to children, there's no reason in the world not to believe that God can reveal his love to little ones through angels. In An Angel to Watch Over Me (originally published by Random House in 1994, with sales of 150,000 copies), Anderson shares more than 30 stories of children's experiences with celestial beings--from a boy whose angels helps him conquer his fear of thunderstorms to a girl who is miraculously rescued from her burning home. From angels who combat evil and darkness to angels who bring news of comfort and joy, each of these accounts is grounded in traditional Christian belief, eschewing any New Age interpretation of the events. For all who are open to the possibility that even children can have authentic spiritual lives--and that attaining a certain age is not a prerequisite for God to touch our lives in the form of heavenly helpers--this book is sure to stir the soul and fan the faith.

God's Watch Over Us As Angels Hover Ever Near
Author: Virginia (Ginger) Smith-Bauer
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781086165630
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
This book evolved from my husband's story and snowballed every time I told someone about what God did for my husband or they read it in our local paper. People, strangers and friends, began to tell me stories about things nobody but God could have done for them in this life on earth. No doubts, they knew, believe it or not, God intervened in their lives and they were touched and felt His Healing Loving Hands in their life/situation. His hand prints were all over their lives and they were not embarrassed to share their strong faith and belief that only Our Father, Our God, did, indeed, touch them. Each one blessed my heart, and I know as long as people tell me their God Stories, I will keep writing and publishing them to share. My own stories fill a big space - God returned my late son's billfold to me, that he had lost when he was 12 living in Batesville before he moved to Alaska, nine years after he was murdered at the age of 30 in Alaska. Nobody but God could have pulled that off!! If you have a God Story, feel free to email it to me for including in a new book, at [email protected].
