My Angel's Voice
by Anonymous

I had an experience two and a half years ago when my son Michael was about to attend college away from home. Since he was a fairly new driver, both my husband and myself took him in our car so he would learn the route before he needed to drive there on his own. The particular route my husband chose for him to take was a bit difficult for a new driver, but because he did it a few times with us, we felt it wasn't impossible for him to drive on his own, and he agreed.

The morning before he was to leave, I kept thinking of him driving there on his own and the thought of it made me nervous.  My husband and I spoke to him to see if maybe he wanted us to follow him, but he insisted with the written directions handy, he would be okay.

About 5:30 a.m. the morning before, I was just waking up in a semi-conscience state when I heard an older woman's voice say to me, "It's your son." Just three short words. My thoughts at first were: Who is this talking to me? It sounded like it was inside my head, and immediately I began to think, could this be my guardian angel sending me some sort of warning? I knew I needed to tell my husband about "the voice" I heard; we needed to do something. When I told him, he felt we should follow Michael the next day; he believed I was being sent a message.

Thank goodness we did. We started to get on to a major highway with trucks and fast-moving vehicles, It was about 4:00 in the afternoon, the time of day when the sun glares right in your eyes and makes driving difficult. We had walkie-talkies between the two cars and Michael had missed an exit and began to panic. He couldn't see where he was going and began to get very upset. The trucks were honking and cars were whizzing by, which made the situation even worse. We drove past Michael and he followed us until we got ourselves back on track.

We arrived at his college safe and settled him in. He was so happy we took the drive that day. Who knew how it would all be... but someone apparently did, and heeded the warning to me. I am forever grateful to her. I believe had she not intervened that day, my son could have been involved in a serious accident.

I have about 50 or so angel figurines and plaques around my house, a few pocket angels gracing  my nightstand and several angel books on the shelf. I am and always will be a huge angel believer - I was before this encounter and I am even more now. It was two and a half years ago, and I can still hear her voice as clear as I did that morning. This was no coincidence or dream - IT WAS REAL! Believe in angels. They are messengers from God here to guide and love us. This was truly a special gift from her.
