Angels

Upon learning that I was going to be granted an early exit from the trade show and do what no one else was allowed to do -- leave my entire bussiness and complete inventory unattended and sitting on the expo floor with thousands of people walking by-- so I could attend a revival that I felt God had spoken to me about,  I had no worries or fears as to whether my things would be there the next morning when I returned. As I went  to pick up my helper the next morning  (he was going to help me load all of the heavy items), I discovered that he was sick and was not going to be able to help.  As I drove away, I said a simple prayer about my situation.  The Lord said, "for me not to worry, He would provide the sacrifice".  I went on and drove my truck and enclosed trailer into the expo building.  There sat all of my things out in the middle of that enormous empty building without a single soul to be seen except for one man in the farthest end of the building. I could not help but look around in the empty building and wonder where this "sacrifice" might be.  I backed up to all of the furniture to begin loading. I got out of the truck and walked to the rear of the trailer, unlocked the door and folded it down, turned around and there were three men walking up to me.  I was so startled by their appearance; I could not believe it. (They were not there a few minutes before.)  I asked them what they were doing.  They replied "We are waiting on our boss to get here." Those three men loaded every single piece of furniture into my trailer without me so much as even touching it. When they were done, I thanked them profusely and asked them, if they knew Jesus Christ.   I made certain I explained the plan of salvation to them in detail.("...for thereby some have entertained angels unawares" Heb 13:2). I believe when a man or woman determines in their heart to go after God with everything they have and put him first, He is obligated and will go to great lengths to reveal Himself to them. And I believe having left all my things overnight with no one to look after them, those angels were guarding them until I returned, for not one single item was missing!!
