Have you seen an Angel?

Angels! Something that the Christmas story isn’t short of! They are everywhere, in dreams and in large numbers, frightening the shepherds watching their flocks by night. Christmas events for children often involved making angels from card and tissue or tinsel or foil or all four. Or maybe dressing up as angels, trying to get the shining halo to balance on their heads without falling to pieces in the process.

Christian teaching varies on the subject of angels. But common factors are that they are messengers from God, and that they will protect and guide on God’s behalf, which brings me back to the question at the start : have you seen an angel? I am not looking for an actual answer. Rather I pose the question to inspire thought, for a yearning of something more, something other, to be alive at Christmas and in our lives. For, as one of those Christmas angels said “I bring good news of great joy” . That’s surely something to hope for.
