Archangel Michael and Hildegard von Bingen

The Vision, an inspiring movie, about the life of Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179) is available for free viewing on Hulu. http://www.hulu.com/#!watch/408952

A German writer, composer, philosopher, visionary, seer, and Christian mystic, Hildegard was consulted and advised bishops. popes, and kings.  She was born the 10th child to a noble family and was dedicated at birth to the church.  At age three, she started to have visions of luminary objects, but soon realized she was unique in her ability and hid her gift for many years.

Archangel Michael appeared to her on her deathbed, advising her to get up and eat, her work was not finished. 

Her life story is a testimony to the strength and power given to one who is obedient to the inner voice of God. 

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Love and blessings,
