I had gone to a hospital to pray for a relative that wasn’t going to make it.  I was the only one there at the time.  I took the day off from work because I didn’t want them to die alone.   They were going to pull the plug and then the other family members would show up, but I wanted to just be there to pray for him.

I tried to pray as best I could.  In between napping, I was praying.  Sometimes if you cry too much you are just exhausted, but I stayed there anyway.

I felt like maybe my prayer wasn’t enough.  I tried my very best, but then asked Jesus to please help me.   After sometime, a gentleman walked into the hospital room and told me he was a Pastor and that he had heard that my relative was here.   He placed his card on the hospital table and introduced himself.

He prayed for my cousin like I’ve never heard anyone pray before.  He said to him “Listen dude”  if there is anything that you want to ask Jesus’ forgiveness for you should do it now.   Listen dude?  Thank you Jesus because this is just the perfect prayer that should awaken him even though the doctor said he’s not there anymore.  I believe he was there.  You know they say the hearing is the last to go when you are dying.  I believe this Pastor got the point across so well.  I just said Thank you Jesus in my mind and heart.   The Pastor ended up leaving and they did let my relative go on to be with Jesus.

Later on, I asked his sister if she ever spoke to the Pastor and she said to me that he had dropped off his card, but there wasn’t any phone number on it or anything, just his name.  Well, that’s something. . . .

Either he was an angel from up above, or he was an angel down here on earth.   I couldn’t believe that I asked Jesus for help and help arrived just in time.

I believe in angels be it heavenly or earthy angels.  Yes, I believe. . . . .
