Three o'clock in the morning. The road to our village was dark and filled with resting cows and furious barking dogs from the neighborhood taking their duty to guard their master's place or some were simply flocking by. My eldest son arrived at the village entrance from work...
He was calling my and his father's cellphone but none of us were able to answer. We were sound asleep. There were no single tricycle arriving since the time was so idle.
My eldest decided to start walking home. It was not a short walk. He would need to walk more than a kilometer to reach the entrance of our block.
After a few meters he stopped. He saw the flocking furious dogs he would need to pass by...he hesitated since some were already barking and not a single human being was there to even assist or be with him at that moment.
Afraid of getting bitten by those dogs he prayed.
After a while, a resting big cow near my son stood up and started walking and passed by him slowly. He does not know but it seems that the cow was urging him to walk with him and he did. The cow went walking in the middle of the street slowly as if it was waiting for him to get by and walk side by side.
As they walk together, my son said he saw all the dogs flee upon seeing the cow. Not a single dog had ever thought of getting near them. Even the brave barking dog went away silently. My eldest son felt safety.
It was amazing that the cow walked side by side with him more than a kilometer until they reached the entrance of our block. My son even joked that he would have talked with the cow while they were walking "he was only afraid that it might talk back!" hehehehe
Upon reaching the entrance to our block my son needs to leave the main road and turn to the right to head home, it was then the cow turn to the others side slowly. It is if the cow said. "You are safe now, I will go on my way."
My son can not forget that experience and I could not thank God enough how HE had taken care of him.
I know God sent an Angel to walk with my son at that moment so that he can be safe and comfortable.
****
This experience made me believe that in the course of our lives, God is sending an angel to take care of us, to give us comfort, makes us happy and keep us safe.
It could be in a form of a friend, a colleague, a boss, son, daughter, husband, wife, a bird, a fish, a dog, cow or whatever God had decided upon.
I thank the Lord GOD for sending angels or possibly it could be HIM himself in disguise.
To GOD be the Glory!!!
Great story and experience.
TumugonBurahinSubhan'Allah! God works in mysterious ways. Amen.
TumugonBurahinYes! Amen!
BurahinYay, kinilabutan po ako. God is really good. Naalala ko un isang story about a girl naman na muntik na ma-rape but when he uttered a prayer she was saved with a man she didn't see but the rapist saw walking with her. Parang ganun un story :)
TumugonBurahinay..kinilabutan naman ako dun. God talaga is so wonderful! Praise God! Mahal niya tayo and will always take care of us. :)
BurahinWow, what a great story! Nakaka-goosebumps, but I really felt the presence of the Holy Spirit. Wow, just wow. Thank you for sharing your son's story! It's really inspiring.
TumugonBurahinGod bless, Marie. Indeed, the Holy Spirit is always there to protect us. Salamat sa Lord!
BurahinI'm reading this story, and it gave me goosebumps again! God bless you and your family! :-)

TumugonBurahinAmen to that, Sis. Lady Anne! Very true indeed!
Burahinnothing short of a miracle. thanks for sharing! indeed angels are all around us.
TumugonBurahinAmen to that, Ms. Linnor!
BurahinGod is good all the time. He knows if you need him the most and I believe in angels, very touching and inspiring story..:)
TumugonBurahinAll the time..God is Good!
BurahinWonderful! It is like the cow shielded him from harm...if i should ever walk in the valley of darkness, no evil would I fear. You are there to show the way
TumugonBurahinAmen! Amazing isn't it? Who would have thought that the cow would walk along with my son at that far and the point he had left him was a sure safe zone...God is truly Amazing!
BurahinThat's a wonderful experience! Truly God had sent an Angel to walk with your son.. Amen to that!
TumugonBurahinPraise the Lord! Yes, it was an angel and God did it! All thanks to God!
Burahinamen! i believe in angels-in-disguise too :)
TumugonBurahinAmen! Who can say, you might be an angel to other people, maybe you just don't know it. :)
BurahinGood story and experience there. Buti na nga lang di nagsalita ung cow. hehehe
TumugonBurahinAy, Oo...my son never dared talking. Baka sumagot e, himatayin sya sa pagkabigla hehehe
Burahinwonderful story. there are really angels in different form. :)
TumugonBurahinYou could be one, you might not even know it. God has all the powers to use us in good. :)
BurahinRight. I agree with that. I hope I can share this story with my students and incorporate it with my lesson anytime soon. :)
Burahinthat cow sure is heaven-sent and most probably a guardian angel in disguise. ang bait niya to actually walk with your son until he was safe already.
TumugonBurahinIt was really surprising! It walked a more than kilometer in the road straight to the corner of our block.
BurahinWow, your son's story is amazing! Truly, God is so good and He's always there for us, no matter what and in whatever ways. I was teary eyed upon reading your post, but I chuckled at the part where your son was almost at the verge of talking with the cow but afraid that it might talk back. :-)
TumugonBurahinhehe...I was not able to stop my self from laughing when my son said that. I can't imagine my son talking with the cow. It would be a real shock if that cow talk back. I imagined my son running faster than Lydia De Vega if that happens. :)

TumugonBurahinGot goosebumps reading this. True, they are indeed angels protecting us. :) Thanks for sharing this story.
TumugonBurahinThere is...:)
BurahinThat's a really live changing experience. I'm certain that an angel was watching over your son.
TumugonBurahinyes, i think to each and everyone of us. Whenever we call on God He never fails to listen and answer in the right time.
BurahinIt's a remarkable story. I had to laugh at the comment that he thought the cow might talk back if he talked to it. :-)
TumugonBurahinEliz
I laugh too when he told me that.
BurahinThat's really an experience, naku sana he tried talking to the cow, para malaman natin if the cow will talk back hehehe
TumugonBurahinhahaha..that would be some story! hahaha
BurahinGod is good, His always with us all the time just call his name.
TumugonBurahinGod is always beside you to protect.:) Great post
TumugonBurahinI'm calling all the angels now to protect and intercede for the complete healing of my friend who just got diagnosed with lung cancer. :( Amen!
TumugonBurahinWow! I'm stunned speechless. God really lends a hand to those who pray.
TumugonBurahinWhat a great story! It is one of the reminders that someone up there is watching over us. We just have to trust and call on Him.
TumugonBurahinIndeed, God sent a guardian angel in the form of the cow to protect and lead your son to safety. I believe in them, I've been saved so many times by my angel too. :-)
TumugonBurahinI'm here again... Happy Weekend Ate Glen! :-)

TumugonBurahinJust checking in to wish you well... Have been thinking of you. Wishing you and your family a very Happy New Year!
