Advent: Day 17

I really like this one. It is just a couple of verses in the middle of a longer story. Elisha keeps on telling the King of Israel what an enemy king is planning to do. The other king gets so upset he sent a troop of soldiers to capture Elisha.

Here you can see the troop approaching, but Elisha is not looking at them, he is looking up to the heavens. I counted, there are twice as many angels in the clouds as there are troops coming up.



I have a friend who was told that someone invisible was protecting him; he always wished he could have seen that angel.

(The sampler is actually square, it was just on a lumpy surface when I took the picture.)
