Angels dance among us and most of us never even notice. I’m not saying these are wing bearing, halo wearing angels who swoop down from heaven shimmering in the light. I’m talking about those angels who walk on two feet, go to the dentist and work hard for the things they divvy up among those they watch out for.
Where there is hunger, they provide food. Where there is injury, they make sure medicine and doctors become available. They hand out hard earned money to those whose lives would be even harder without it and they offer it in the best of ways. Freely given, it comes with the opportunity to retain self-respect by working off the debt when the time is better.
They do not forsake those who stray, nor do they forget those who cannot seem to learn things the easy way. They are not push-overs, but they are always there with an open heart and arms stretched wide.
Angels who walk this earth unafraid, willing to stand in the back ground and be what they need to be in the name of love.
These angels are disguised as people many would prefer not to notice, doing work some find repugnant, but they are the most angelic people I know. Quietly doing all those things many Christians claim to do, but, in reality do not.
Every time I see them at work I am lost in the love and awe of their selflessness.
