Karen Kingsbury An angel walking The book series remains one of the most popular titles from Christian Authorweave The angel story was sent to a special mission to intervene in human life. Perhaps surprising, Kingsbury says that the series was inspired by what she believes is a real encounter her family had with the angels.
Kingsbury shared the headline and details for Crosswalk this week About the encounter of angels When she promoted a new movie someone like youis currently streaming on Great American Pure Flix and is on sale on February 22nd in the Great American Family.
Angel's encounter occurred in 2007 after her father had a heart attack while he was back in the recliner, she says.
“My nephew Andrew was at home [with dad]. He was only 11 years old and my mother had a cast on her arm from a fall. So Andrew called 911 and they went through him and gave my dad's CPR about 11 minutes. … The paramedics got there and my dad was blue and unresponsive, so Andrew met the next room and started crying because he was there. A kind of His father's appearance. He had no dads growing up. They are trying to revive him. It doesn't look good. ”
Suddenly, a police officer ran to the house, grabbed her mother by the arm and said, “Madam, do you believe it?” Jesus? ”
“And she said, “Yes.”yeswe do, but I don't think my husband is going to make it.' And he never wavered. And he said, “Well, we need to pray that the power that raised Lazarus from death will now bring life to your husband.' So they prayed this powerful prayer. …and when [the police officer] I said “yes” and Amen' – In other rooms, the paramedics cried. “We have a heartbeat.' And it was exactly this miraculous thing.“
Her father, who suffered from diabetes and suffered from multiple health issues, lived there for another eight weeks. The last eight weeks have been a gift, Kingsbury said.
“We sang worship songs around his bed, prayed on him, and he was with us. In other words, he I was awake enough What you can do To have a conversation. Everything we wanted to say was said. ”
Shortly after her father's death, Kingsbury's mother contacted the police station and wanted to thank the law enforcement officers who were praying with her.
“She had his name His Badge number…and she I asked if she could speak to the officer. And the person she spoke to didn't know him. She has died From one employee to another. And finally, she was talking to the head of the department's staff, and the man just said, “Maam, sorry. I've never had a police officer by that name and never given anyone that badge number. .'
“And she said to us, and we said to him, 'Well, that's it Hebrews 13 Situation to us: Be careful to entertain strangers.
“There were no other options – why was it an angel? Why wasn't it? just It encouraged me to write An angel walking A series of angels sent by God and are moving around secretly between us on missions that bring influence and great differences.“
