The Footladder:  Angels

Throughout Scripture, from Abraham (Genesis 22:11-19) and Mary (Luke 1:26-38), angels bring good news to those whom they visit.  Likewise with Jesus, after being tempted in the wilderness it is mentioned that after the devil left Him, “Angels appeared and looked after Him”, Matt 4:11.  Again, it is mentioned in Luke 22:43 when Jesus is undergoing the great stress of preparing for His arrest, an angel appears to bring strength to Him.

Likewise in the Footladder of Notes Divine, God confirms the existence of angels, their visitations, and their precious messages for mankind.  But, in addition, in the Footladder mention is made of their other powers of peace and healing as well.

Angels bring

intrepid word

to all who mill about

who sing of thee

gratuitously

who bring the sound

to earth around

of holy peace declared.

Unbeknownst to human eye

phantoms of flight unobserved

trilling in winged delight

amidst myriads of light

phantasms of misty deep

murky in mind's eyes

lurking amidst

winged messengers of on high

secluded from earth's delights

proprietors of earth's ministerings

roundabout

seeker of twisted mind's states

mollifier of earthly doubts

Do you not hear the songs of angels

Help hearts to recover pristine form

Held in heartbeat Mine art thee

captivated with song of angels surround
