Angels or Demons? Are they among us? I wonder... I had an experience years ago. I was walking my motor scooter (big motor - you sat on it and it could go 35-40 mph) late at night with a friend talking, when suddenly, a complete and total stranger approached me and said, "Be careful with that. You might hurt yourself." I said thanks, but disregarded him as a crazy person. A few minutes later, I said goodbye to the person I was talking to, put on my helmet, and took off. Suddenly, I hit a pothole, the handlebars started uncontrollably shaking, and I couldn't remember whether you're supposed to let up on the gas, or give it more. I gave it more. Wrong choice. I woke up in the middle of a busy road with 2 police cars and an ambulance around me. I refused medical attention (ambulance and emergency rooms are expensive when you have no health insurance), went home, and went to sleep. I didn't realize it until I woke up that I had a broken collarbone. I wore a sling for a while. In fact, one of the reasons I got together with my now wife was my mother in law had seen me in church with the sling, felt bad for me, and told her daughter she should get back in touch with me. I wonder if that would still have happened if I never had the sling to call attention to myself. So, the question is, was that man an angel trying to protect me, or a devil trying to prevent me from meeting my wife? |
