Guided By Angels: Part 3 of 3: There Are No Goodbyes, My Tour of the Spirit World. Paddy McMahon
course I was running, one morning a week over a period of eleven weeks. On the last morning of the course he told us that he had been notified the previous week that he would be needed as a witness in a court case that was due to be held on the morning of our meeting. He said to his guides that they would have to make sure that he wouldn’t miss the last part of the course. He informed the legal people that he had a prior engagement that he couldn’t cancel, and that they could contact him on his mobile telephone when he was due to be called to the witness stand. Shortly before we finished he got a call to say that the case had been settled and he wasn’t needed.
I don’t know what combination of circumstances led to the settlement but, presumably, it was the best solution for both parties. In any event, Mike’s guides came up trumps not only for Mike – but also for the rest of us in the group, who benefited very much from his presence.
In the following story, I hadn’t asked for a sign but it came anyway.
Before I got round to being able, after a fashion, to use a computer, I had a very accommodating typewriter that allowed me to type laboriously on it with one finger. The day after I had typed some comments about guardian angels, I went out to have photocopies made. On my way back I remembered that I wanted to buy something. I was drawn to go into a particular shop. A pleasant, serious-looking woman took my order. As she was handing me the item, her whole countenance lit up with a beautiful smile and she said: ‘There you are, angel.’
Perhaps having noticed my somewhat mystified expression as I thanked and paid her, she explained: ‘I heard you speak.’
That was all. She went back to what she had been doing before serving me, and I left the shop. I think I was too awed – not so much by the incident itself (although the woman had given me a lovely gift for which I was very grateful) but by its timing – to ask her for elaboration.
On the face of it, that was only a minor, passing happening; but, to me, it was a wonderful affirmation of how angels reveal themselves to us and encourage us, if we’re open-minded enough to allow them to do so.
Once again, however, revelations don’t always come directly; for example, they often happen through other people, through hearing a song or a piece of music, or reading something. Our guides are infinitely ingenious in finding ways to communicate with us, even if we are totally unconscious of them. When they communicate, the primary consideration for guides is to help people raise their levels of awareness, so it’s always important to remember that answers may not come in a literal way. This story may help to illustrate that point.
A woman named Antoinette telephoned me on a Friday evening to say that she was due to be married in two weeks. The invitations had gone out and all arrangements had been made. However, her fiancé had just told her that he couldn’t go ahead with the marriage. She was devastated. She was due to go away for the weekend with friends, but she couldn’t face that now. She asked me if I could consult my guides and ask them to talk to her fiancé’s guides, in order to change his mind.
I couldn’t agree to ask that of my guides – which would be an interference with free will – but she wasn’t in any mood for philosophical arguments. I asked for guidance and I told her that the message I was getting was that the whole situation would be sorted out by the following Monday.
She called me again on Monday evening. After talking with me on Friday, she had assumed that her fiancé would contact her on Monday to say that he had suffered a temporary aberration and now couldn’t wait to be married to her. She was delighted by the prospect, and happily went off on her weekend, which she thoroughly enjoyed. But when she got back her fiancé informed her that, far from changing his mind, he was even more firmly entrenched in his decision not to marry her. So, she wanted to know, what was I, or my guides, or both, up to in assuring her that the situation would be sorted out by Monday?
