I LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN. WHEN I THINK OF HOMELESSNESS, I THINK OF BIG CITIES. I THINK OF PEOPLE BEING SHELTERED BY CARDBOARD BOXES AND LIVING IN SQUALOR. VISIBLE HOMELESSNESS IS NON-EXISTENT HERE IN OAKDALE. THANK GOD FOR THAT. HOWEVER, I WATCHED A VIDEO HERE ON FACEBOOK THIS MORNING, WHICH REMINDED ME THAT THE HORROR OF HOMELESSNESS IS RAMPANT. IT ALSO REMINDED ME THAT ANGELS UNAWARE DO INDEED EXIST AMONG US AND APPEAR AT THE LEAST EXPECTED TIME AND PLACE.
HEBREWS 13:2 TELLS US, "DONT FORGET TO ENTERTAIN STRANGERS, FOR BY SO DOING SOME HAVE UNWITTINGLY ENTERTAINED ANGELS." I WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELIEVE THIS HAPPENS FAR MORE THAN WE EVEN THINK POSSIBLE. MY DAUGHTER OFTEN GETS TIRED OF ME REMINDING HER OF THIS FACT. AS I SAID, WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN, BUT GOD IS NO RESPECTOR OF PERSONS AND HE CAN WORK THROUGH ANYONE.....THE TROUBLED, THE DRUG ADDICT, THE ANGRY PERSON IN LINE, THE HELPLESS CHILD, THE POOR, THE UNPOPULAR KID AT SCHOOL OR THE OLD AND FEEBLE. GOD MAY SEND HIS ANGEL UNAWARE THROUGH ANYONE!!!!
WE ESPECIALLY NEED TO BE MINDFUL OF HOW WE TREAT THE POOR, THE CRIPPLED AND THE FEEBLE. THROUGHOUT THE NEW TESTAMENT, WE ARE TOLD OF HOW JESUS PERFORMED HIS MIGHTIEST MIRACLES THROUGH ALL OF THEM. JESUS LOVES THE HELPLESS, THE WEAK AND THE DOWN TRODDEN. HE EVEN TOLD US THAT IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, THE FIRST WILL BE THE LAST AND THE LAST WILL INDEED BE FIRST. THE THOUGHT OF ANGELS UNAWARE IS FOREFRONT IN MY MIND AND ON MY HEART TODAY. IT IS MY PRAYER TODAY TO BE MORE LIKE JESUS AND SHOW COMPASSION AND LOVE TO EVERYONE WHO MIGHT CROSS MY PATH. WHO KNOWS, I MIGHT EVEN BE ENTERTAINING AN ANGEL UNAWARE.
WHAT A THOUGHT....................................
