Recently, Mike over at Resting in His Grace suggested I use an ANGEL in my post, and Cathy over at Did Jesus have a Facebook Page? asked me to share one of my angel encounters to encourage others.
So here’s my angel story for you: A couple of years go my son, Brian, was working in the oilfield. It’s a very dangerous job, so I would send out the Lord’s angels everyday to keep him safe. One day his boot slipped over the drilling hole just as a thousand pounds of pipe came crushing down over his boot. Everyone froze and watched in horror. They knew, without a doubt, that one of their buddies had just lost their foot.
Suddenly, everyone started screaming and scrambling at the same time to locate the missing foot, and the driller cried out, “I can’t find your toes!” Another hand was working to get the damaged boot off my son’s foot, when Brian called out, “That’s because I still have them!” As he wiggled his toes in the air, everyone on deck stared dumbfounded.There was no psychical way that my son’s foot should still be intact.
Later, my son told me, “Mom, I couldn’t have moved my foot back into my boot far enough to save my toes. I’ve tried, it’s not possible. Keep sending those angels they work.”
So now your asking — do ANGELS really exist? A big resounding, “YES, they do!” I recommend sending out the Lord’s angels daily to help your children, family, friends, and church body. You can send them to comfort, to fight evil, to protect, and to keep loved ones safe. Go ahead — save a life today!
For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. Psalm 91:11&12
Indeed, they exist and are at work! Thanks for sharing today, Dei! God bless you!
Hello, Ted. I’m glad the Lord’s angels are out and about!
God Bless You too!
YES! God’s angels are all around us. So glad he was saved like that!
Thank you, Cathy. Praising God for His awesome angels.
God Bless You!
Love this testimony. Psalm 91 is one of my favoriates. Yes I believe.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Thank you, Francine. I appreciate the encouragement!
God Bless You!
I’m not sure that scripture was for us, but He still sends His angels. I always joke that my dad has to have a whole bunch of them because he wears them out so they have to take turns watching over him. Maybe I will share some of those stories on my blog one day if God wills. I wouldn’t want to be without the angels and God’s protection. We also need them to help in the fight against the enemy and his fallen angels. I’m so glad your son is ok!!!!! Angie
Thank you, Angie. Steve is the same way. He’s had so many plane wrecks from engine failure — he says, “God loves me! He has given me an army of angels.”
God Bless You!
Amazing story and testimony, Lady D! Loved it!
Thank you, Debbie. Thankful we have an awesome God!
God Bless You!
Hi Dei , Angels do indeed exist as my own life gives testimony of this, they are God’s s ministering spirits and answer to Him, they take orders from the Big Boss, in other words. we thank God for the wonderful preservation of your sons toes as I do for my life but sadly I didn’t at the time that my life was saved by them, I will leave the link for you.

I use to wonder about the Scripture below but of course if you are giving praise and worship to Angels and not God, this is idolatry and in the end times it will be wide spread but it does not mean we can’t give thanks to God for them as you have done Dei but we also need to remember Satan himself masqrades as an Angel of light and his demons do his work but what they do is very differant from Angels who protect and watch over us.
Colossians 2:18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind.
Christian Love Annie.
No worries, Annie. I do in fact Praise God for my sons toes! I’m also thankful the Lord sends angels to help us in times of need!
Thank you for the link. I will work my way over shortly!
God Bless You!
Thanks Dei and thankful your son’s foot is ok. I don’t have any doubts at all that God’s angels are all around us, constantly doing His will.
God Bless

Hello, Ron. Thank you for your encouraging words. I too am very thankful we have a loving and caring Father!
Now go have a great anniversary vacation and take an angel or two with you!
May God Bless you two mightily!
That is one amazing story, Deidre. But then again, our God is amazing. Praise the Lord for His protective hand… even His angels. On a side note, I’m really curious to know if lots of traffic came by way of the title? To be honest, my use of the word didn’t attract the traffic at my place as it did over at CB. Who knows?
Anyway, it opened the door to hear of how our God has delivered you and yours! God bless, good friend… and thanks for the nod!
Hello, Mike. Believe it or not titles like, “Steve’s Tarzan Tumble” or “Kill the Snake” rated better. What seems to work well “rate wise” is posting regularly, and I cannot find that kind of time. And also, visiting more, finding new friends ect. The problem with me is I can’t keep up with the peeps I like now, so tippy toeing around to put more on my plate does not appease my appetite.
Thanks for your friendship, buddy. And God Bless You!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful testimony! God bless!

Thank you, Paulette. Enjoyed your visit!
