At the gazebo on Prayer Mountain:

Looking right outside the gazebo, I saw a very thin short angel. He looked like a 10-year-old, skinny boy. His ears stuck out slightly and he had short, red hair.

He was barefoot and wore khaki cut-offs that came to his knees. He had on a white T-shirt. He smiled at me.

“Who are you?” I smiled back.

“STRENGTH,” he said in a thin, boyish voice.

I chuckled inwardly – then composed myself: “Strength?” I grinned.

He turned around. On the back of his T-shirt was printed: WHEN I AM WEAK, THEN I AM STRONG, (2 Corinthians 12:10) with a smiley face in the center.

Amazingly, the first thing that came to mind was wondering if he could use a smiley face on his T-shirt. I thought it might be trademarked. After this passed through my mind, the message written on his T-shirt registered with me.

He turned around to face me again. “That is a word to the wise, isn’t it?” He smiled, winked, and was gone.

“Wait,” I called out in spirit. “Have you been assigned here?”

He reappeared: “It looks as though you need Him,” he said. He smiled again and was gone.

I thought to myself: I guess this means “Yes”.
