Nov 23, 1998, I lost my grandson to a full term stillborn death. This devastated the entire family as it could have been prevented and occured due to physician negligence.

The first year was a struggle. The pain I endured for my own loss, and that of my son and wife were hard to bear. I had lost my faith in God and was very confused and very angry..angry with the doctor, and angry with God.

Early in Nov,1999 as I was sleeping, I was visited by seven angels. They appeared as a vision in a half circle with the center angel hovering above the rest. All I could see of her was her face and she was the only one who spoke. She said, "I will see you when you get married." Then they all disappeared. When I awoke, a sense of calm was about me, something I hadn't felt in years. I felt at peace, yet didn't understand the dream. I wasn't even dating, so what could she have meant about "when I get married." After much sole searching the only significance I could come up with was that you get married at the alter, and the alter is in the presence of God. Maybe she was telling me I needed to return to church and to put my trust in God again. It's the only sense I could make of it, by why seven angels?

A few days later, Nov 11th to be exact, my birthday, my fellow workers had an office birthday party for me. They knew I loved angels, in fact always bought me angels of some sort for any special occasion. This would be no different. One of my gifts was lovely musical angel that played silent night. They all knew it had been a difficult year, not only due to my grandsons death, but financial problems, illness and a father who was terminally ill. They made me a homemade card and one of the guys, one who I would never expect anything religious from wrote a special message. "Best Wishes for a Happy Birthday", Nathan (Rev.21,3,4). I never related that to the book of Revelations, knowing Nathan as I did. I just thought he was putting a title on himself so I laughed and stated, "real funny." He said, "you don't know what that means, do you?" My reply, "no". When he told me it was the book of Revelations..to read it. I did just that as soon as I arrived home.

The message was awesome and inspired me to read further. Much to my surprise it mentioned the "seven angels" and what they meant. Nathan had no idea I had that dream, so to me, Nathan was an angel, a messenger from God, to tell me what my visit from the seven angels meant. What a blessing it was to have a real live angel for a birthday gift!
