A Special Angel

A week ago, a special angel was sent in to my life- a young woman who had lived a difficult life. Her family had put her out in the street with no where to turn, and it was clear to me she had some very special needs. This beautiful angel spent nearly a week in my home. My friend and I felt very strongly she needed to be closer to her family in Idaho, so Friday afternoon we packed our car for an up and back trip. Whe we arrived in Idaho, all avenues seemed to come to a dead end. She wasn't able to live with her family there, either, for various reasons. As we continued to seek, we continued to find more and more dead ends.

We got in touch with a bishop from the LDS church, and he helped us get in touch with a social worker who would be able to help her... Monday morning. It was Saturday, and we were running out of options of how to help her. My thought was we would be bringing her home with us again.

Zane's sister lives about an hour away from where we were... and graciously agreed to allow her to stay with her until Monday when the social worker could help her.

Then a miracle occured. My special angel has an aunt- whom we had been trying to contact- that lives about 3 hours from Zane's sister. She returned my call. This aunt had been praying that God would put someone in to this young lad'y life that would help her get to her aunt... which will be happening tomorrow!

There are those who may doubt the existence of God. I am not among them. I know God lives. I know he is my Heavenly Father, and He loves me. I know he knows each of us personally- and He hears every prayer we pray. He knows our hearts, our desires, our pain. He loves us. He answers prayers and is our guide, our light and our hope.

I know this special angel- who was sent in to mylife for a brief moment- is His daughter. He loves her and will protect her. I am so gratful to have had the opportunity to meet this special angel... and have her touch my life.
