Angel Kisses

Lately, Ryan insists on giving me angel kisses. I have no idea who has taught him about angel kisses and I have been inclined to keep it a mystery. To most people they would seem like ordinary kisses on the check. However, given my great expectations of God, I know where they really come from. Who says that we can't see God and feel God. His angels have been giving me kisses. And I have actually been asking for some. I have been thinking about it a lot this week and I stumbled across this verse. "Keep on loving each other as brothers. Do not forget to entertain strangers (or loved ones), for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it." Hebrews 13:1-2. Every time I get one of these angel kisses I think about this now. I really do believe that kids experience God in a totally different way than adults do. Their lack of inhibitions and lack of need for reasoning gives them a greater ability for faith and hope. We make conscious efforts to look for God, but I think they see God without even thinking about it. I think we can learn a lot from them as we begin teaching them about faith.

I hope you have an opportunity to receive an angel kiss, and I hope that when you do, you recognize it as that.
