Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him
Gen. 32:1
It is in the path where God has bid us walk that we shall find the angels around us. We may meet them, indeed, on ways of our own choosing, but it will be the sort of angel that Balaam met, with a sword in his hand, mighty and beautiful, but wrathful too; and we had better not front him! But the friendly helpers, the emissaries of God’s love, the apostles of His grace, do not haunt the roads that we make for ourselves.
