Guardian Angels

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Phil. 4:6 (NIV)

Last night as I was thinking about loading up all the luggage and dragging it to Union Station. I became apprehensive. So I decided to pray and make my petition known. After I prayed the thought came in my head, God could send us a guardian angel. Then I went to bed.

This morning I was able to CRAM all my new clothes in the already full suitcase (I bet it weighs more than 29 lbs now) and we were ready to go. The bellman took our bags to the lobby. The cab driver loaded our bags in the car and then took them out at the station. Then, as Glory and I were strategically dividing the bags between us, a man with a cart came up and hollered, “Red Cap Service!” So this nice fellow loaded our bags and escorted us to ticketing. Before we got there, he sent me to Starbucks (I had mentioned taking a cup on the train) and told me where to met him and Glory. He helped Glory buy the tickets and then he took us to the correct train and loaded our bags in the luggage compartment.

I told him, “I prayed for a guardian angel today.” And he said, “See what happens when you pray?” You’ve got to love it!
