God's Angels Are All Around Us

"Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing so some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it." Hebrews 13:2

 It is easy to get frustrated with people sometimes. Whether it be the person sitting in traffic ahead of you, not moving anywhere, someone cutting in front of you in the line at the grocery store, stealing your spot in the parking lot, or even just running into without one apology. See, we can get frustrated, but we can't let that frustration become anger. Keep it within yourself and show the person kindness.
 But if someone is rude to us, if they do something to purposely frustrate us, why should we be nice to them? Well let me ask you; did you ever think that maybe, just maybe, these people are God's angels, and He has sent them down to teach us something? And how would you feel if someone did frustrate you, and you were rude back, only to find out that you were just rude to one of God's angels that He has sent down for you?
 See, so today, the message that I want to get across to you you is that, even if we are frustrated at people, even if they cut us off in line or cause us to sit in traffic a little extra longer, just keep in mind that this person you are about to say something mean to, they could quite possibly be sent by God.
 So be kind to everyone, that is really what I want you to take away from this. Show everyone the care, love, and compassion that you have to offer, because you never know who could end up being one of God's angels.
