I believe that angels are all around us, and they look out for our safety and well-being on the behalf of God. I personally have had several angel encounters.

One that really stands out is when my boyfriend and I went to Queensland, and decided to go boogey-boarding at one of the surf beaches. It was not the first time I had been boarding, so I was pretty confident. The beach was packed, and we were having a lot of fun. That was until a big wave came crashing down on me from behind, and threw me off my board.

Suddenly, I was being dragged along under my board by the safety cord which was strapped to my wrist. I was frantically trying to get to the surface whilst being swept sideways along the beach at incredible speed. I couldn't believe what was happening! More waves pounded down on me and as I inhaled my first lungful of water, I realized that I may very well drown.

That's when I started to be pulled in to shore at an amazing speed by what seemed to be an invisible force. The next thing I knew, I could feel the sand grazing my knees and I stumbled onto the shore and coughed out the water I had swallowed. I was at least 100m down the beach from where I had started out, and it seemed that no-one had even noticed the near-fatal incident.
