Angels Come In All Shapes and Sizes

They come in the shape of a man who drives an ambliance (Lis-ism)...

and the shape of a smiling fireman with a yellow glow-in-the-dark slicker.

They come in the shape of a young man wearing a sweatshirt and jeans, a baseball cap and rubber gloves...

...this young man, who can read the beats of a heart, and the pressure of blood as it surges through veins.

Angels come in the shape of a snow white cat...

with liquid eyes: big, blue, and full of knowing.

  4. Thanks for reminding us that angels surround us all the time and come in all shapes and sizes. I'm so glad to hear that Lisbeth is stable again AND that you have power.

    Rainbows are such hope-filled things! Loved seeing your photos.
