Location: N/A
By: Gladys
When I was a child I saw a burned down home and at an open door from a far distance I saw a girl about the age maybe 20 years old and two children by her side and one baby in her arms she waved at me with a smile that I will never forget because it made me feel soo alive and peacefully at the second and I realized that there could be anyone liveing in that burn home in fl. As a child that I was I told everyone to come in side that home to see why the lady I saw was in there and when we went inside the house there were no one there!! I always remembered what she was wearing I never for got. She was with a blue and white jacket that I have found years later at a second hand store . I want to believe she was an angel but I really don't know.
Some may never see with earthly eyes these heavenly beings or know that they exist. Many are unaware of the numerous ways they have protected and guided us. We would like to share with you the stories of people who take pleasure in expressing how real angels are.
