Footsteps In The Sky
There is an angel in the host of heavens so giving and so loving that she chose to help
others live their lives on Earth in the best way; she became a Guardian. In this role she could
share in people's triumphs and trials alike connected by the deepest spiritual and loving way
even if her presence wasn't fully known. She is able to love unconditionally and give wholly
of herself to those who were in her charge.
Of the people she looks over, in fact the ones she is caring for at this very moment,
are so good, so giving and so loving like herself that the angel wanted to make her presence
known to them and show them to what measure their love is bringing light and joy into the
world. The spiritual bond is ever present, but sometimes not consciously known.
While in angelic form, guardians share every emotion, every concern, every joy and
sorrow of those in their charge. They smile down with understanding and unconditional love.
However, there is no reaffirmation of a concrete form, which people sometimes need to give
them strength, courage, and confidence. This is a condition to be decided by the angel: come
to Earth in physical form and resign the role of Guardian or remain in angelic form but without
physical contact. She felt these people were so deserving that she decided to give to them in
such a way that they could learn how much good they have brought to life and she could still
remain their Guardian .
And so she came to share the house of her charge. As is the course of Nature, the
house shared became two houses, a body within a body and for many months the bond was
stronger than ever between the angel and her people.
When the time came for the two to part ways, the angel knew she had to return to the
heavens and she smiled and understood with love and benevolence. So as she left, she made
sure there was a way to remember the gift and her time spent and left her mark on Earth so
that the memory would not fade over time.
The people thought the events as a tragedy for they did not understand why their
newborn child was taken from them. Their friends and family all came and gave their love
and support which gave strength to the people who had begun to heal and someday to
understand the mysterious ways that God does His work.
The house had served its purpose and the angel smiled again from the Heavens seeing
friends and family come together. And as she reflected on the gift she had bestowed, her Light
shined brighter as her love grew ever more.
In fact, you can see her shining if you just know where to look...
