Mary'am Meets an Angel (part Two)


        I sank to my knees among the wild flowers, clasped my hands together, and replied in a hushed voice. “Behold the handmaid of the Lord: be it unto me according to your word.”

        While I watched wonderingly, the angel’s feet rose from the ground, his magnificent wings spread out, and I saw him gradually lift up higher and higher, until he flew out of my sight. After he was gone, an Invisible but very hallowed sense of Shekinah, surrounded me. Never have I had such profound agape love, such happiness, and complete tranquility permeate my being as it did at that moment. It must have been a foretaste of the joys of Paradise.

Although the sensation faded, I am certain that ‘I AM’ touched me in a very profound and personal way. I can-not express what He has done for and to me. When He left I quietly murmured Alleluia El ohim Yisrael!

 

       
Shortly after this experience the evening sun set and the sky quickly grew dark. The night air was laden with the perfume of roses and other blossoms and the sky was brilliant with stars. There were so many stars that it seemed like there were surely symbolic messages of great portent written in the sky that only the learned could read.

        I crept into the house for this little scroll, my reed pen, and a small clay lamp; and am now sitting on a large flat rock near the lovely almond tree trying to write with the aid of the stars and the lamp’s flickering glow.

“Holy, holy, holy,” I breathed, loath to leave this sacred place, yet knowing the hour was growing late.
        I seemed to be wrapped in an aura of other- worldliness for the rest of the evening.
