Do we see Angels?
I took a walk today. The weather was perfect... all the trees seemed to be filled with yellow and it was warm out. I was on my way back home and noticed that I was listening to a hidden track on the CD that I always listen to when I walk or run. It was an hour long track by Gabriel and Dresden... I love them! (Very talented musicians... they have thier own sound.) So, as I was walking, a big, black truck went past- it was a Dodge Truck with a yellow and orange decal "Hemi" over the back wheels. It was going kind of fast so I didn't really pay any attention except to look down and not directly at the person driving just for my safety. I walked past a beautiful pond on my road and was thinking about the name Gabriel. It would be my dream (silly and childish as it may seem) to meet an angel... to get right to the point-- have you seen City of Angels, the movie? That idea. So beautiful and perfect. So- with that thought in mind, I was walking past a large line of trees that hid an entrance to a nature conservatory for those driving past... there was a little pink "egg" car just sitting there. I assumed that it was a mail man sorting his mail in an out of way place. I walked past. This black truck drove towards me this time and stopped right next to me. I must say- I was a bit hesitant, but he opened his window and leaned over. "There's a suspicious car sitting over there. Be careful." He was a big guy with flannel and a very protective eye. I looked over the hood of his car to the small car sitting a little ways back. I thanked him twice and he didn't respond- I don't think he really wanted gratitude... he seemed as if he just had the intention of warning and that was all. He turned around near the guy and took off loudly on the other side of the road-- he hovered over the steering wheel and glaring back through his rearview mirror at this little car. He didn't look back at me which indicated to me that he was not looking to meet a young girl walking, but rather honest in his intent to scare this guy into realizing that I was being protected by a passer by and that he needed to go. Now. The little car turned around just where it was and took off in the other direction almost immediantly.
Was I in danger? I think so. How much danger I will never know, but the situation was so strange and seemed out of place in this town-- so very much so that I would never even really think that other people driving around would see this little pink 'egg' car as a threat. Why would this guy be looking out for me? It was very cool. I thought later as I was walking the rest of the way home- I wonder if I should have asked who he was, but that would take away from the action of protection and take my attention off from the fact that I am cared for deeply by my Father and I am looked out for. Thank you!!!!!!

Everything happens for a reason... I am very glad that the Hemi-Dude was there.
