Angel Ministry Today
15
Angels are sent to minister to the children of God who are physi-
cally blind. Angels guard their steps and save them from a thousand
dangers, which, unknown to them, beset their path.—

I was today to write upon Christ walking on the sea and stilling
the tempest. Oh, how this scene was impressed upon my mind.... The
majesty of God and His works occupied my thoughts. He holds the
winds in His hands, He controls the waters. Finite beings, mere specks
upon the broad, deep waters of the Pacific, were we in the sight of
God, yet angels of heaven were sent from His excellent glory to guard
that little sailboat that was careening over the waves.—

Angels Involved in Family Life
The Lord is served as much, yes, more, by the faithful home worker
as by the one who preaches the Word. Fathers and mothers should
realize that they are the educators of their children. Children are the
heritage of the Lord; and they should be trained and disciplined to form
characters that the Lord can approve. When this work is carried on
judiciously and with faithfulness and prayer, angels of God will guard
the family, and the most commonplace life will be made sacred.—

Before leaving the house for labor, all the family should be called
together; and the father, or the mother in the father’s absence, should
plead fervently with God to keep them through the day. Come in
humility, with a heart full of tenderness, and with a sense of the temp-
tations and dangers before yourselves and your children; by faith bind
them upon the altar, entreating for them the care of the Lord. Minister-
ing angels will guard children who are thus dedicated to God.—

even when there are apparent difficulties in our pathway?—
