Running Fox’. ~*~*~*~ QUOTATION OF THE MONTH
Looking
for the meaning of life?
Good wine needs no praise. This surely is valid for these articles, with Angels as its central theme, that inhabit these ‘Running Fox Papers.’ Several readers took their pencils and altogether they have woven these words that will hopefully contribute to a better understanding of these on the whole unseen companions of each and every one of us. Further announcements therefore are not necessary. Thus I invite you to follow these Angels in the direction towards which they would lead us. Next issue of ‘Running
Fox Papers,’ will have ‘past lives’ as its topic. In the case you feel
you would contribute to that issue, I very much like to hear from you. Hans Brockhuis Looking

Life can be so overwhelming… at times… that one needs a place of spirit to rejuvenate… to catch your breath… before moving along on their journey. As you feel the energies of anxiety, fear, hate, worry, swirling around you, know that they are outside of you… and that inside of you is a soft glowing ember of God's Truth and Light. Once you take your mind's eye off the negative energy and focus inward, the negative feelings start to evaporate in strength, as your focus is what gave them their initial power over your life. Focusing inward
on your ember of Love and see it brighten, in Light, and grow in warmth
all around you, encompassing you, melting all other energies… feeling
embraced by this warmth and softness and gentleness… feeling as a babe
must, held gently, curled Your own energy can grow from inside to produce this hug of comfort for yourself. Imagine that you
contain all the Loving power in the Universe in this God Center, of
this ember, of your soul… for in truth you do… and this energy of Love
has the power How can you see yourself using this new power? In your Life? And in others? Will you keep it to yourself… this newly discovered secret, or will you share its Truth and Love with others? Angels of the Light send their Heaven-sent energies of Love down and out to you, as you may also send your Heaven-sent energies down and out to others. Oh! How powerful you have become, what a great being you always were and now you see who you are. What a great truth you have discovered on your journey of life. Watch it take flight in a huge cluster of multicoloured butterflies and fly out to brighten others' lives and circle the globe. Amen. ~*~*~*~ My
first encounter with one of my guardian angels Thomas of Aquino says: 'Angels are the announcers of the divine silence. It is normal that an emotional matter- or the concept of an idea - appears without voice in silence. Angels are clear, pure mirrors of the divine.' For weeks now I
have been reading in the beautiful book written by Petra Schneider and
Gerhard K. Pieroth any spare moment I have. This originally German book:
'Engel begleiten Uns' is translated to: 'Angels as life companions;
Angels as mental support and consultant: our mental helpers in the spiritual
and mortal area.' Almost every time I read awhile, I feel that precisely
thát paragraph was necessary for my next step in the learning
process, or to get up my spirit. The learning process that I am going
through on this planet, has accelerated the last few months. Coincidence
~*~*~*~ Here is my written testimony of the first encounter with one of my Guardian Angels, grandmother. My husband and I had been out to dinner during our vacation in Figanières, France. We were on our way to our apartment, driving on a smooth, broad asphalt road, which followed the curb of the mountain. The stars were bright and it was very dark, because there were no streetlights along that road. I was behind the wheel and suddenly I felt a disturbing feeling in my stomach. The next moment we saw a kind of foggy band shooting from left to right in front of our car. In a split second it felt like a rubber band was held before the car. The foggy band startled me and immediately let go of the throttle. Then a car surprised us and almost hit our bumper as it flew out of that curb – it missed us by a centimetre. At that moment, for the first time since she had gone to the next world, I suddenly felt the resence of my grandmother very clearly. My husband said very frightened: “That was very close, did you also see that weird foggy thing coming up suddenly?” Me: “Yes, it made me step off the gas, cause it startled me!” He: “I do not see fog or mist anywhere, that is strange.” The other car got back on the asphalt somehow and drove on, leaving us startled and thankful that nobody had been hurt. During the rest of our vacation my Traffic-Guardian Angel saved us more often of collisions with reckless French people that swung on the wrong side of the road on curling mountain roads. A few weeks ago I asked the medium with whom I have contact on a regular basis, whether there is a Guardian Angel in traffic that accompanies me. She oscillated with a crystal on a silver chain and told me: “Your grandmothers’ soul is one of your Guardian Angels.” Only then I re-membered that I felt the presence of her soul so strongly in Figanières when that car had almost hit our car. Thank you grandmother, for protecting me so well in traffic. One third of the
North-American population has experience with Angels. (Fox and Sheldrake,
page. 11). There are also many films about Angels. In the book that
I am reading, the German film ‘In weiter Ferne, so nah!’ by Wim Wenders
is mentioned and ‘Message from Sam’. Not long ago I saw a funny movie
with John Travolta: ‘Michael’ and off course I saw ‘Ghost’ with Patrick
Swayze, Whoopi Goldberg and Demi Moore. I think ‘City of Angels’ (Nicolas
Cage, Meg Ryan and Dennis Franz) is also a good movie. I like to read
books in the language they are originally written. When your knowledge
of the German language suffices to read the book in German, the ISBN
number is: 90 6378 452 X – NUGI 626 – SBO 30. The title of the original
book is: ‘Engel begleiten uns’. ~*~*~*~ Visited
by an Angel I had turned off the television after watching "Touched By An Angel", one of my favourite programs. It was late and I was very tired, so off to bed I went. As I drifted off to sleep, in a half-dream state, an angelic voice seemed to be speaking to me. Words from a loving entity were filling my thoughts, my heart, my soul. While writing this story I am reminded of her words. "What is PEACE? What is LOVE? What is FORGIVENESS? And what is TRUTH? You can all be angels (messengers sent by the Creator) even to non-believers, yes, non-believers. For even THEY are loved by the Creator." "If all of your deepest thoughts were put on a neon-lit billboard, for all to see, would you be pleased, or would you feel shame and embarrassment? You can answer for yourself. No judgements, no condemnations." "Is there someone, or possibly many, who have hurt you, broken your heart, or brought you to your knees in tears? Can you let the anger go? Can you realize that holding onto the pain only hurts YOU? For you see, that by forgiving, you unleash all anger towards those that may have hurt or angered you. Think about what it was that, in your heart, was unforgivable. Was it the person, or rather the words or deeds? Do you walk in their shoes? Do you know what pain, sorrow, or emptiness lies within him or her - that they would lash out hurtfully at you? To those of you that believe in prayer (or meditation), have you thought of praying for that person, and while doing so, sending love and compassion to them (sincerely). We, as Angels, have heard these prayers and seen the results. Do you want to experience a REAL miracle? Then trust in my words and watch the miracle unfold" "The word LOVE can hold many meanings. In your holy books, Jesus Christ is quoted as saying " […] you shall love your neighbour as yourself" (King James Version, Matthew 19:19). You might ask: “who is your neighbour? Everyone you come in contact with is your neighbour. What you give to others you will receive multiplied" "With all of the above, if believed, ALL will experience PEACE, LOVE, and FORGIVENESS. These are only SOME TRUTHS to think about" Namaste “Your night time Angel" With this, I must
have fallen asleep, for I heard no more, I only "felt". ~*~*~*~
© Marianne Luijkenaar 2002 Today I would like to speak about Angels and the way they come to us. From many conversations with people it appears that a large group have, at some time, had an experience with the existence of something they later understand was an Angel. Each experience is very different. One person sees a white light, another is assisted by a person at a moment they are really in need of something, and yet another meets their Angel in nature. Thus you can see how different these occurrences can be. But there is always this similarity: the occurrence gives the person the certainty of the existence of Angels, and after these encounters these people receive hope, strength, courage in life, or an inner calmness. I have experienced Angel encounters a few times, but the most recent of them dates back to last week, and amazed me so much that I want to write about it. In the middle of the night I woke up. My window is darkened with a blackout curtain next to a common drape, in order to prevent the external light to enter the house. I live next to a busy junction where the streetlights are lit the whole night. This night, though my sleeping room is blacked out, a white light shone on the ceiling near my window. Slowly I became a bit less sleepy, and still lying down, I kept staring at the light. Because of the drapes it was impossible for any light to enter the room from the outside . I watched the light, seeing that the upper part had the shape of a little doll in the way children are wont to draw. A little circle as a head and two little sticks for arms. The light stayed as it was: tranquil. After my former experiences I knew that it may or may not start speaking, yet it did not. Angels communicate by means of telepathy most of the time. Before I fell asleep, again I asked the Light if it would communicate with me in my dreams. It is often easier to exchange thoughts with these beings while sleeping than awake, because while awake one tries to reason everything out through ones' mind. In the case of these experiences, though, the only way to understand them is to feel what's happening and reflect on it later. The dream came, and it was so beautiful that even today it remains in my mind as vivid as can be. That is why I want to share it with you. The Dream: The child of a dear friend has his birthday. I have bought a nice gift for him, and together with my children we go to visit him. I like this eight-year boy very much; he is a nice little fellow. It is not an easy child, because last year the diagnosis ‘related autism’ has been determined. We see him regularly. He has a special place within our hearts. He is not an easy child; last year the little boy was, by means of a number of examinations he had to undergo, diagnosed with ‘presence related autism.’ We see him regularly, and he has a special place within our hearts. So I am on my way to the birthday of this little chap. When we ring the doorbell, he opens it himself. He behaves enthusiastically and looks pretty. When I enter, right away he opens his arms wide. I take him in my arms and take a good look at him. Then a shock reverberates through me… I can see the Angel that visited me last night through his eyes and by the expression of his dear little face… the Angel that appeared on my ceiling. The boy looks radiant. All the reserved mannerisms that sometimes exist in him are gone from his face. Two child eyes look at me with so much love, that it hás to be an Angel. This experience is so overwhelming that tears come into my eyes. I put the little fellow down. He takes my hand and takes me inside, where his birthday party is waiting for him. We celebrate his birthday and all the time the Angel in him is there. It looks as if he wants to speak through this boy. Later I reviewed what really happened in the dream, and that moment was so overpowering and healing, that there was nothing to be done but to surrender to it. Upon reflection I realised that the Angel has chosen this child to speak to the people. All suffering and all sorrow around the child withdraw, because an Angel has chosen him to deliver his message. This autistic child may be an Angel in itself and spreading around a message of Love. By this I saw we have to Love all children and care for them carefully. We do not have to seek for things outside of ourselves, but be good to others who are close to us, without care of the way another looks or behaves. That Love, an Angel, wants to be present in a little guy of eight years. This is what I have
learned from my meeting with an Angel, through my eight year old little
friend. *~*~*~ Angels,
unconditional support and Love.
As is being said, the support from the angelic realm is permanent and unconditional. To be able to accept this possibility in our human awareness is a present and a gift that we may grant ourselves. The fact is this energy of Love exists – whether we will feel it or not is our choice. Simply ask for it and it will be given. Angels are beings with a certain mission, and that task is servitude to the Divine. When we ask consciously for the Presence of the angels, they really are unconditional, helpful and full of Love. There can be that feeling of being carried away, comforted or cherished. The realm of the angels is there for all of us. During sessions in our practice ‘Healing, the new Approach,’ we may work with the energies of angels. Love, from the higher as well as from the more earthbound angelic world, assists us in surrendering to healing. For that, we are ultimately thankful.
