Fallen Angel

One night I was sitting on the steps of my house

I was in deep thought

The dog went inside his house for the night

I closed my eyes to feel the breeze

Summers are very hot and dry

The moon was shining very bright

unaware of what was happening

Something crashed int he bushes

I had jumped up and proceeded

To see what it was

My dog came running

Only to run back inside his house

I had shaken off any fear

That had encumbered me

I had found a few feathers on the ground

The size of the feathers amazed me

I had a desire to run

but curiosity loomed over me

I had noticed a wing of some kind

The wing span was amazingly long

My feet turned before I did

When the wing had started to flap

I ran to the house

I could hear my dog whimper

I had looked back to see what was in the yard

I looked out of the window

I had noticed a man standing there

He was looking back at me

My heart started to race with fear

I could not tell who he was

I was hungry and thirsty

I did not have any food or water

The man knocked at the back door

The smell of food filled the air

My neighbor was standing at the door

and he had some food and a bottle of water

He had a party for his son

and decided to bring me some food

I do not know how he had known

that I had no food and water

But he definitely became a fallen angel

on that particular night

"For there will never cease to be poor in the land. Therefore I command you, ‘You shall open wide your hand to your brother, to the needy and to the poor, in your land."  Deuteronomy (15:11)  God will provide all of our needs according to his riches and glory in Christ Jesus.  I have never seen God forsaken anyone of his children.  May God help those that are suffering from brokenness and poverty.  Something as simple as a plate of food can save a life, and most people take that for granted.  One of my goals this year is to serve people in need.  Until next time may the Lord bless you with peace and prosperity.
