Tuesdays With The Angels-Be The Light

Posted on by

‘Be The Light‘ is a simple phrase with oh so much meaning. Here I am, a writer for many years now, and with books to share I’ve not had the forethought  to use these very words that mean so much to me.

To me being kind to all and being the light for those you love in as many ways as you can means everything. It’s like my other favorite phrase, ‘Random Acts of Kindness‘. Kindness is a theme in all my books. It is in my thoughts each day if I talk to my husband, children, grandchildren and friends. But it is also  the perfect way to speak to a stranger. A kind word, a nod, a smile are rays of light for someone else’s day. It’s a way to show gratefulness to God and the angels that we get how precious our lives and the lives of others are to humanity.

Being the light in other’s lives brings hope, peace, and joy to the world. But also we must remember to bring light to ourselves. The older I get, the longer I live, I know this to be true.

Years ago, a homeless man ran up to me in New York City as  I walked to my daughter’s apartment. “I need six dollars for medicine,” he said as he tried to keep up with my fast walking. Never closing my handbag, a habit of mine, I reached in and gave him a twenty dollar bill. He said, “Thanks,” and ran on ahead but abruptly turned around and said, “You’re an angel.”  He then ran on and I didn’t question he really needed the medicine. I pictured him going into the drug store to get what he needed. I was pleased with myself.  I knew I was a light for him that day.

But now years later I wonder,  maybe he was an angel, teaching me how showing random kindness is such an intregal part of love. How being the light helps me grow into all I can be. Being The Light is forever in my hopes for a good day. The character, Madam Norma, who is in all my books always says, “Kindness is the first ingredient of love.”

Tuesdays With The Angels-Bringing Peace To The Children of the World

Posted on by

Peace is possible if we think only of our children and grandchildren’s safety and happiness. The world is suffering and the most vulnerable, the children, are suffering the most aren’t they?

I believe in positive thinking and prayer as the late minister Norman Vincent Peale’s works influenced my life, helping me through the grief of losing my daughter years ago.  I believe in imagining a world where God’s grace shows us the way to peace. We must realize the precious short life we are given and how loving each other is the only way to live a peaceful life.

I met an angel long ago. He appeared human but the circumstances were extraordinary. When I lost my daughter and was in the saddest place I’d ever been, he  comforted me with his words and then he was gone in a flicker of a candle moment. Did God send him? I know He did.

As I pray for peace, I pray for all of us to see the light, the light of love. Change needs to come in our sensitivity to others pain. Human kindness is the way to the light that love shines.

Below is the cover of the first novel I wrote in the Mystic Bay Series. The book is dedicated to my dear daughter, Kate. Because I met an angel long ago, my life has been forever inspired. My life is full of prayer for my family, friends and also just as fervently for the world. 

“In the night of death, hope sees a star and listening love can hear the rustle of a wing.” Robert Green Ingersoll

Tuesdays With The Angels-Are Angels Perfect?

Posted on by

People ask if angels are perfect. Yes, they are as perfect as God created them to help us.To me angels are God’s messengers, helping us through our days. Through joys and sorrows, angels are near. I know in my own life, I find this to be true.

I know friends and many others who come to my book signings  who have had experiences with angels. Some have seen them, seeing wings and beautiful glowing beings of all shapes, sizes, genders and ages. Some people say they have been saved from accidents, or have heard angel’s messages, finding objects, or seeing miracles happen in all kinds of scenarios.

 My own experiences with angels on earth include meeting an angel appearing as a human once years ago.  My encounter with the man I call, Angel, changed my life from sorrow to moving forward after the  loss of  my daughter.  I am writing a book about meeting him and those I’ve encountered who also may have been angels on earth. To me angels are as perfect as they can be. They are celestial beings, full of love, sent by God. I found great comfort knowing angels are near.

Tuesdays With The Angels-Messages From The Angels

Posted on by

People are wondering if angels are humans? Are angels female and male? I’ve spoken to so many people who have had angel experiences and read so many stories and of course I have had experiences of my own.

Angels can be male, female, old and young according to those I have spoken to and stories I’ve read. They are not human but celestial beings in my belief. Although angels do appear in human form to help and guide. I know this to be true because I had my own angel-human encounter years ago. The encounter changed my life. The encounter meeting the man I call angel, inspired me to create a fictitious series of books about angels living as humans in Mystic Bay, a town I created.

The angel I encountered inspired me to write my  memoir about the children wtih special needs I taught and how they changed my life and way of thinking after my daughter passed away.

There are so many stories about angel encounters from others I’ve known  that I am writing a new book about it. You see, I  discuss this  all on my Jody Sharpe YouTube channel because in our world today, we need more stories of angels, of kindness and of spiritual awakening. These stories in my mind and stories that I’ve read and have been told to me, fill my soul with hope and gladness. Love is real and angels are real. My message from the angels today is Follow your Heart. Your heart knows the answers!
