Angels are among us. Weather they are from the other side of the veil or on our side. They help, they lift, and they bring messages of Christ. I had the honor of experiencing two such angels. At our apartment we have what they call white gloves, which is just basically where we deep clean the whole apartment in preparation of the end of the semester. We have to take over one area of the apartment and clean it and if something isn't done right, we get charged. It is estimated that it takes 8-10 hours. I just didn't have the time.
God knew my needs and during that week two of my friends asked me how I was doing and if they could help me with anything. Of course I told them I was fine and couldn't ask them to do me such a great favor. But during the day, I finally gave in. I was so stressed! But the two friends came and put all they had into it. By the time I had to leave to perform in a concert and meet with my accompanist, there was still some things to do later that night, but a lot had been taken care of. Both of them were willing to stay while I was out. But I wouldn't hear it. I imagined what it would be like to come home and have it all done, and just be able to sleep, but I resisted the temptation. It didn't feel right to me. I would feel guilty until dooms day.
I thought about this experience later. I had really, really appreciated the gesture and valued it very much from both of them. It was touching to see how much I was loved by both of these friends. But even more amazing was that I realized this wasn't out of the ordinary for them. Not to their standards. They both love helping those around them and gladly help those in need. And what were the chances that they would especially be concerned about me at a time I needed them so much. With the help of my Father in Heaven and the help of my friends he has blessed me with, I am truly Never Alone.
