Lets all enjoy the second day of Christmas, with the angel miracle, "The Man In White" Lots of love, light, hugs and happiness. &, Uma Not all Christmas angels are warm and cuddly. Some of them are so big and strong that they would frighten the most hardened criminals. Evangelist Billy Graham has written several excellent books about this angelic reality. One event he recounts is particularly memorable. During a Christmas season some years back, there was a young lady working in a outreach ministry in an extremely rough section of Chicago. One night, she was in her office when a gang of well-known local hoodlums paid her an unfriendly visit. They had seen her in the neighborhood and didn't like the fact that she was there. They approached her door and began pounding on it. Then they rang the doorbell repeatedly. The young lady knew who was at the door. Swallowing hard, she made a earnest prayer to God for protection and went to the door. As she opened it, she said, ''Yes, can I help you?" Suddenly, the gang of punks became terrified. They ran away as fast as their legs could carry them. Surprised, the young lady shook her head, perplexed, and closed the door. The next day, the gang leader sheepishly approached the young lady and asked her an interesting question. "Where's your boyfriend?" he asked. "Boyfriend? I have no boyfriend," replied the young lady. ''You know, your boyfriend!" exclaimed the gang leader. "From the other night!" The woman asked him to explain. "When you answered your door, your boyfriend was right behind you. This dude must've been over seven feet tall and built like a tank! The guy looked like one of those Greek statues. He was dressed real classy, too." The young lady then realized that it was her guardian angel who stood behind her that night.
