Two Personal Experiences That Made Me Think An Angel Was Watching Over Me

Summary

The author reflects on personal experiences that led them to consider the possibility of angelic intervention after initially dismissing their mother's belief in angels.

Abstract

After the death of the author's mother, who had a deep fascination with angels, the author embarked on a journey to understand her beliefs by reading and watching content about angels. This exploration led to a transformation in the author's perspective, prompting them to reevaluate two pivotal moments in their life through a new lens. The first was a painful breakup with a manipulative partner, which the author overcame after a chance encounter with a kind stranger in Chicago. The second was a period of job insecurity that resolved itself unexpectedly after the author asked for their deceased mother's help. These experiences, previously seen as mere coincidences, now seem to the author as possible instances of divine intervention or guidance from angels, including their mother, whom they now consider to be watching over them.

My mother loved being surrounded by images of angels. She had paintings, little statues, and books about angels. She even though she had her guardian angel. I didn’t share her passion, and I thought it was a little naïve, maybe typical on an old lady who felt a little lonely. I never really spoke to her about it, and I regret it.

After her death, I realized I wanted to know her better. I was too late, but maybe she could surprise me once again with her powerful insights. So, every day for one year I read books and watched videos of her favorite authors, who wrote about angels.

During those long months my emotions slowly changed, and I felt I could go deeper into my soul to know myself better, and feel happier about my life. I learned that to communicate to angels we need to open up and have faith, which is exactly the opposite of what I used to do. Then I reconsidered two specific moments that I had previously seen under a different light.

I still remember how difficult it was to break up with a manipulative men whom I loved deeply. It was so painful, I was torn between leaving him and rushing into his arms ready to experience the same pain over and over. Following a rational decision, I planned to put some physical distance between us, and the most realistic way I thought of was to go to another country.

I decided to visit a city I liked, Chicago. It was winter and feeling sad, alone and with little money in a big American city soon turned out to be the wrong choice. Walking around was too difficult, so I decided to visit a museum, to spend some time in a warm place and find out more about modern art. At the time there was an exhibition of Van Gogh, it was impossible to book the ticket online, so I decided to buy it there.

I spent a few hours in line outside, in the cold weather, thinking about my sad relationship and convincing myself that he was not the right person for me, but that I would never find a better person, or the right person for me. I was so sad that I kept crying, which is an even worse situation in the cold and windy weather. Outside the museum there was another short line for the subscribers, who had purchased a few tickets in advance and didn’t have to wait.

An elegant lady noticed me and came closer, she told me she was sorry to see me crying, and gave me a free ticket to the exhibition. I was only able to thank her, then she went away. Since then, I started to feel better and become free from the memories of my lost love, and once I returned home, I felt the most difficult phase of our relationship was over. It took a few more weeks, but I finally got emotionally free from his spell. I stopped being part of the mechanism created by his manipulative behavior.

Another time, years later. I had been trying to change my job for a very long time, the company I was working for was almost out of business, and I couldn’t find any good alternative. I had a lot of job interviews. You all know how frustrating it is when you look for a new job, you put in a lot of energy and continue despite the results, just because you have faith. Faith will come to your rescue when the right time arrives.

I was driving to work, and I started crying. I thought I couldn’t go on one more day like that, yet I had to. I asked my mother to help me. I felt some kind of energy was moving around me. In a couple of hours, the company I had an interview weeks before called me: I had the job.

Again, tears, despair, then something lifting me up. I felt that when I am lost or sad, and ask for help, angels and my mother with them, who is now an angel to me, help me rise, show me the way and let me understand that I am not alone.

Have you ever felt an energy helping you after you tried your best, and nothing really changed? Or do you think it all has to do with your consistency and determination to feel better?

I never thought I could believe in this power until I read about my mother’s passion. I don’t know if there are angels out there, or if it has to do with your religious beliefs, but if you have the faith to ask, you will receive.
