Objects Closer Than They Appear: An Angel Message

 

It must have been an angel tap. Yesterday at the bank while waiting in the drive-thru line, I happened to glance out my side-view mirror and saw a living portrait.  Our national symbol, Old Glory,  centered and framed in the reflection glass.  

I've seen the American flag many times, but this time was different. A humbleness touched something deep below the surface. The lone red, white, and blue flag gently waving  high above the city came to life in the sunlight.  My heart stirred as if wakening with such gratitude.  God Bless America! I pray God will keep His Hand on America and let freedom prevail.  

The bold print on the glass, OBJECTS IN MIRROR ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR made a perfect caption.  A sign to keep praying for our country, now more than ever.  Let freedom ring.  The best is yet to be.

 The lyrics to God Bless America came to mind.  "God Bless America/ Land that I love/ Stand beside her/And guide her/Through the night with the light from above."   (Irving Berlin)

Love, peace, and gratitude
