Angels all around.

And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, LORD, so that he may see.” Then the LORD opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

-2 Kings 6:17, NIV

I am convinced God preserved me during the darkest part of my first marriage’s demise.

My suspicion is that He commanded His angels to surround and preserve me. In fact, I have pictures of light orbs in my bedroom during that time. Nothing was wrong with my camera. I suspect they were angels.

We never really know the lengths God goes to preserve those who are faithful to Him. But I do know He had a hand in preserving me. Of this, I am convinced.

It is easy to be like Elisha’s servant and blind to the spiritual army sent on our behalf. We can be consumed by the evil in this world.

Never forget, though, God is able to preserve His people, and He is greater than the evil in this world.
