"For My angel will go before you" Exodus 23:23
I was late for work but the warning light on my gas gauge had been lit since I left the house. So I pulled into the nearest gas station and asked the attendant to pump only P500 worth of fuel.
"You accept credit cards?" I asked the gas boy.
"Yes ma'am," he replied and took my card.
He returned and said that their credit card machine rejected my card. I didn't have any other card and I was almost sure I didn't have P500.
I got all the money I had in my wallet and in the car. I came up with P485.
"This is all I have," I told the attendant sheepishly.
"It's OK, ma'am, I'll take care of the difference," he replied.
I drove off and prayed a blessing for the gas boy.
A few days after, I returned to the gas station to repay the attendant. I described him to the other gas boys there but they said nobody worked there with that description. He must have been an angel.
Many times, angels come our way- Godsends who aid us, rescue us and protect us.

REFLECTION:
"Make yourself familiar with the angels, and behold them frequently in spirit; for without being seen, they are present with you." (St. Francis de Sales)
Dear Lord, send angels to go before me to guard me and lead me where You want me to go.
