Divine Intervention?

I had a very bizarre occurrence very early this morning. One of those moments that solidifies that there really is probably more going on then we could possibly imagine.

At 5:15 am this morning I was awaken by my doorbell bell ringing. It woke me up, I thought I was dreaming and then it rang again. Half asleep, and a bit freaked out, I grabbed my robe and walked down the stairs and checked the door and no one was there. 'Ok' I thought, 'I'll chalk it up to dreams.' I walked back up the stairs, by this time I am pretty much fully awake and laid back down. Probably less then 20 seconds after laying down; Someone in my room said my name. Completely audible, clear as day, and it was a female voice. It was coming from the corner of my room behind my door. All the hair on my body stood on end. I forced myself to sit up and look in the corner. Nothing was there. An instant feeling of dread overcame my complete being. My first thought was (throwing the sign of the cross, spitting over my shoulder, knocking on wood) that my mother had passed away. I was frozen there sitting in bed. And then the oddest thing that would possibly happen at that moment happened - my phone receives a TEXT MESSAGE!!! It was my new friend Mike (see yesterdays 'dating' post) sending me a fun little message that he was thinking of me and sorry it was so early. ??? Ok, I was awake so we bantered back and forth shortly and then ended the exchange. I was still heavy with worry that something had happened to someone I loved. It was about 5:50 am at this time and my mom was just going to have to bite it because I was calling her to make sure she was OK. She answers and is right as rain. SHEW!!!!!
I felt better now. So I went downstairs, had a bowl of cereal (Honey Bunches of Oats w/ Almonds), and then went back upstairs to get a little more sleep. I didn't want to wake up anymore people. So about 9:30 am I called my sister and everyone on her end was fabulous. Nothing wrong - kids good, husband good, sister good. Chatted for a few mins with her, hung up, set the phone down; and it rings - it's Mom.

She had to talk to me about what had happened to me. Bless my Mom's heart - I have given her so much stress and cause for worry - I wish I could stop her from this but she's my Mom and I have been, um, well, lets just say I don't make very wise choices so she worries. But I digress. She tells me that last night she had a very strong, heavy session of prayer that she was asking for help for me. (I'm telling ya, bless this women's heart!!) And she says she felt an angel last night and that this angel was going to help me. And she believes this angel manifested itself to me this morning. Mom says I need to just go with all that is going on with me right now that this angel is going to help lead me in the direction I need to go.

So you know what - I am going to go with it. Angel, do your stuff!!! But next time don't scare me half to death doing it!!!! LOL (j/k angel!)

Mom, I love you and thank you for always praying for me - I'm sorry that I make you worry - but really - I'm OK - You got the Angel on the case now so you can rest easy!! :) I love you!!
