Angels Surround Us .............

This is a story that I'm a little embarrassed to share, but for some reason I have been compelled to share it anyway! Sometimes we need help, and sometimes others need our help. Read this below and see what you think! When Joe and I moved to Utah from Colorado, we were making good money. I never thought we would ever need help with any of our bills or anything! We bought our first house together, Joe had a great job and I didn't have to work. This lasted for a good while, then we started making about $20,000 a year less than when we bought our house. I started working, money was getting very tight, we had an adjustable rate mortgage that just kept going up. There were some days that I just felt I couldn't take it anymore! This was one of those days, that some angels walked into our lives.

Our mortgage was a month behind, we just couldn't get caught up on our bills. We had lots of junk we didn't need, so we decided to have a garage sale, hoping that we could sell some junk, and maybe just maybe get at least some of the money we needed to get our mortgage caught up! I know this sounds silly, but some of us are just not as rich as others! 

It was Saturday morning, and we set everything up for our garage sale. Joe and I are stubborn and no one knew that we were having money problems, because we hid it well, and we never told anyone we were having some money problems. Anyways, that being said, it was this day that a true miracle happened. No one was coming to our garage sale, I was getting even more discouraged, not even having enough money to buy groceries for our kids. I went into the house, and I was cleaning my kitchen. Then, all of a sudden my little daughter Hannah came into the kitchen and she said "mom someone is here for the garage sale." So I walked to the front door, and there was a woman standing there, and she said "can we come in for a while?" I thought this was a little weird, but I said okay, then about 10 people came up to my door, we did not know any of these people, not one of them, at first I thought maybe they were people from my church, but then I realized I didn't know them at all. More of them started coming into our house with boxes of food! I thought this too was a little weird. One of the ladies told me that she was driving through our neighborhood, and she just felt compelled to get some of her friends together, she said something just told her that we needed some extra help. Can you believe this, It was a weird day. This isn't even the rest of the miracle that happened. We kept asking them who they were, and where they were from, and they kept telling us that they loved us, and that we were good people. Keep in mind we had absolutely no idea who they were! Then when they were getting ready to leave she grabbed my hand and handed me what looked like maybe 10 one dollar bills folded up, she said "this is for your garage sale, good luck!" I didn't want to sit there and count it in front of her, and after they left, I opened up the folded money, and there was a $1,500 check inside the folded money and at the bottom of the check it said "We Love You" I just started crying!! Joe looked at me and he was like what's wrong, I handed him the money with the check, and then he started crying! We made about $100 at the garage sale that day, and with the $1,500 check we had the $1,600 we needed to make our mortgage that month. To this day, we have no idea who these people were, or how they knew we needed help, or even where they were from! They were all crying as they left, the spirit was so strong that day!

If this isn't a sign that there are Angels all around us, I don't know what is! Every time I think of this "Angel Miracle" I cry. There are angels all around us. Have you ever been compelled to do something? Have you followed through with what the spirit is telling you to do? When you have a feeling you should do something, don't ignore it, JUST DO IT! You never know how what one little thing YOU DO, will permanently affect others for the rest of their lives! If you have an "Angel Miracle" you would like to share please share it! Thanks for reading this!
