Angel Stories About Children
“Your Daughter Will Recover…”
As the mother of a drug addict, Marta felt hopeless. The odds that her teen-age daughter would abandon her addiction and her lifestyle seemed unlikely. According to the specialists in Sicily, where the family lives, young, pretty, female addicts were the least likely people to stop taking drugs, especially heroin, “the tyrannical lover who never [...]
Dark Shadows
Oujji boards, fortune-telling and other substitutes for God’s authority seem like harmless pastimes to many of our children. But this event, somewhat of a departure from the usual Story of the Week, shows that once a door is opened, even innocent people can be affected by what comes through. As a very small child, April [...]
Caught By an Angel
Krisellen Lang had lost her first three babies at early stages in her pregnancies. So when she found herself expecting yet again, it was hard to work up any enthusiasm. Why should she begin to love this child when it might never live long enough to be born? But Krisellen’s pregnancy was a result of [...]
Bicycle Helper
Dick had been talking to his four-year-old son Bobby about the power of prayer. “God will always answer when you pray to Him,” he pointed out. One day Dick took Bobby to an enclosed cement area (like a tennis court) to teach him to ride his new two-wheeled bike. At one point the chain came [...]
A Song From Another Time
Six-year-old Janet had always had a certain memory, something she couldn’t quite get hold of, like a little wisp of smoke that lingered just outside her reach. Her memory involved a sunny, wonderful place where she had somehow been before she came to earth. And joyful sounds there… Once or twice Janet had tried to [...]
Angels and Babies (Part Three)
These reports intrigued me. It seemed logical that children were closer to paradise than we adults—hadn’t Jesus told us that their innocence and pure hearts were what the kingdom of God was all about? Perhaps little ones, so “fresh from heaven” hadn’t yet experienced a clear-cut boundary between the two worlds and, for a little [...]
Angels and Babies (Part Two)
For example, Nita Hannie, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, wrote me of a difficult time when her just-turned-two-year-old son, Patrick, was receiving chemotherapy at St. Jude’s Hospital as an outpatient. Patrick developed a low-grade fever, but instead of admitting him to the hospital, the emergency room physician prescribed Tylenol. That evening at the hotel, Patrick’s temperature [...]
Angels and Babies (Part One)
When my book, WHERE ANGELS WALK, was published in 1992, I was delighted at the positive response from readers. Although I had expected people to tell me of their own angel experiences, I was surprised at how many parents wrote about their children’s. One morning I settled down with a batch of mail from my [...]
An Angel’s Fern
Treva Clay, now of Auburn, Washington, was only about six years old when her parents decided to clear some land for her grandparents. The job would take at least a week, so they decided to bring Treva and her toddler sister with them each day. The girls could spend time with their grandparents while Mommy [...]
Afraid of the Dark?
Deborah Hudson’s belief in angels began when she was three or four years of age, through the gift of a miracle. “I remember it almost as if it were yesterday, rather than 40 years ago,” she says today. “I slept alone in my room, and, like many children that age, I was very afraid of [...]
