From the lips of man
to the Ears of God

Heavenly Angels or Everyday People?

Do you know someone who seems to be an Angel on Earth? Could it be possible that God sent us some "almost" Angels to watch over us and inspire us to be the best we can be?

South Mountain
By Ruby Watts

A minister passing through his
church in the middle of the day,
Decided to pause by the altar and
see who had come to pray.
Just then the back door opened, a
man came down the aisle,
The minister frowned as he saw
the man hadn't shaved in awhile.
his coat was worn and frayed..
The man knelt, he bowed his
head, then rose and walked away
In the days that followed, each
noon time came this chap,
Each time he knelt just for a
moment, a lunch pail in his lap.
Well, the minister's suspicions
grew, with robbery a main fear,
He decided to stop the man and
ask him, "Watcha doin' here?"

The old main told him he worked
down the road. Lunch was half an
hour.
Lunchtime was his prayer time,
for finding strength and power.
"I stay only moments, see, ‘cause
the factory is so far away;
As I kneel here talking to the
Lord, this is kinda' what I say;
I JUST CAME AGAIN TO
TELL YOU, LORD, HOW
HAPPY I'VE BEEN, SINCE WE
FOUND EACH OTHER'S
FRIENDSHIP AND YOU TOOK
AWAY MY SIN.
I DON'T KNOW MUCH OF
HOW TO PRAY, BUT I THINK
ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.
SO, JESUS, THIS IS JIM
CHECKIN IN."
The minister feeling foolish, told
Jim that he was fine. He told the
man he was welcome to come and
pray just anytime.
"Time to go, Jim smiled, said
"Thanks." He hurried to the door.
The minister knelt at the alter,
he'd never done it before.
His cold heart melted, warmed
with love, met with Jesus there.
"I JUST CAME AGAIN TO
TELL YOU, LORD, HOW
HAPPY I'VE BEEN, SINCE WE
FOUND EACH OTHER'S
FRIENDSHIP AND YOU TOOK
AWAY MY SIN.
I DON'T KNOW MUCH OF
HOW TO PRAY, BUT I THINK
ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.
SO, JESUS, THIS IS THE
MINISTER CHECKIN' IN."

Past noon one day, the minister
noticed that old Jim hadn't come.
As more days passed without
Jim, he began to worry some.
At the factory, he asked about
him, learning he was ill.
The hospital staff has worried,
but he'd given them a thrill.
This week that Jim was with
them, brought changes to the ward.
His smiles, a joy contagious,
Changed people, his reward.
The head nurse couldn't
understand why Jim was so glad,
When no flowers, calls or cards
came, not a visitor he had.
The minister stayed by his bed,
he voiced the nurse's concern;
No friends came to show they
cared. He had nowhere to turn.
Looking surprised, old Jim spoke
up and with a winsome smile;
"The nurse is wrong, she couldn't
know, that all the while Everyday
at noon He's here, a dear friend of
mine you see,
He sits right down, takes my
hand, leans over and says to me;
I JUST CAME AGAIN TO
TELL YOU, JIM, HOW HAPPY
I'VE BEEN, SINCE WE FOUND
THIS FRIENDSHIP AND I
TOOK AWAY YOUR SIN.
