Perfect Timing
Some years ago, I was
one of several teachers on an educational tour of seven countries in
Europe with high school students from the U.S. Our tour bus stopped at
the famous Cologne Cathedral in Cologne, Germany for sight-seeing. The
crowds of people and numerous tour buses from all over Europe required
that everyone in our group stay close together so as not to become
separated and lost.
After touring the cathedral, I told my group
I needed more film for my camera and, since I knew our bus number and
location, I would meet them back at the bus. I stopped at a shop
outside the cathedral, purchased the film and made my way back to the
bus.
I went from bus to bus to bus, each from a different
location in Europe, but there was no sign of the bus I came on. Not one
of the drivers spoke English; no one could help me.
As I
realized I was lost, I stopped in my tracks and spoke to the Lord.
Bible promises learned from childhood flooded my memory, and I began to
speak them aloud. "Lord, You said You would never leave me or forsake
me. When I am afraid I will trust in You. Lord, I am lost and don't
know anyone in all of Germany or all of Europe. Please help me find my
bus."
Just at that precise moment, I felt a tap on my
shoulder from behind. I turned and look up into the face of a tall,
handsome, white-haired man who said, "Lady, are you lost?" I told him
my predicament and he instructed me to follow him.
We went
down a series of steps to a different level where many more busses were
parked and he led me right to mine. When I turned around to thank him,
he had vanished!
This incident was so profound that I could
not speak of it for a time, even to my husband. But I knew I had
experienced my angel ministering to me in response to God's word.
(Psalm 103:20) Now I share it gladly with all who need encouragement as
evidence that God surely watches over His own!
