This collection juxtaposes text from Google Search autocomplete with the intimate language of prayer. Corporate jargon coexists with the incantatory and ancient ghazal form. Ahmed’s second book of poetry explores the terrain of loss—of a beloved family member, of human dignity and potential, of the earth as it stands, of hope. Her poems weave mourning with the erratic process of healing, skepticism with an unsteady attempt to regain faith. With poems that are by turns elegiac, biting, and tender, Bring Now the Angels conveys a desire to move toward transformation and rebirth, even among seemingly insurmountable obstacles: chronic disease, corporate greed, environmental harm, and a general atmosphere of anxiety and violence. UNDERGROUND …They are turning their locks to paint their faces and their daughters’ faces. They look on as the girls regard their eyes in mirrors, in the long cracked mirror of history, and war. They paint themselves into existence inside the shuttered rooms of their hearts, where freedom still bristles…

The chase was over. In April 1969, nineteen-year-old Jerry Shepherd stares in his rearview mirror at the two policemen approaching his car. He wants to run, make his escape, perhaps his final escape from life. Then he curls his fingers around the small Bible in his back pocket as the words Peace be still whisper through his head. He holds to those words as he steps from the car to handcuffed and arrested. Angels at the Crossroads is the compelling true story of Shepherd's amazing journey from wrongdoing to redemption. Convicted of a crime he can hardly believe he could have committed, Shepherd faces life in prison and fears not only that he won't survive behind bars, but also that he has stepped beyond the hope of prayer or forgiveness. His parents say no as they cover him with fervent prayers, but Shepherd must find his own way through the jungle of prison life to the people - earth angels - who can help him discover God's love knows no limit. On this pilgrimage to self-acceptance, Shepherd learns to forgive the past and completely and unconditionally love again. If you face a crossroads in your life, Shepherd's inspirational journey may help lead you down a new pathway to a life filled with compassion and love. Visit author Ann H.

It was the summer of storms and strays and strangers. The summer that lightning struck the big oak tree in the front yard. The summer his mother died in a tragic accident. As he recalls the tumultuous events that launched a surprising journey, Samuel can still hardly believe it all happened. After his mother's death, twelve-year-old Samuel Chambers would do anything to bring her back. Prompted by three strange carnival fortune-tellers and the surfacing of his mysterious and reclusive neighbor, Sam begins his search for the Tree of Life--the only thing that could possibly bring his mother back. His quest to defeat death entangles him and his best friend Abra in an ancient conflict and forces Sam to grapple with an unwelcome question: could it be possible that death is a gift? Haunting and hypnotic, The Day the Angels Fell explores the difficult questions of life in a voice that is fresh, friendly, and unafraid. With this powerful story, Shawn Smucker has carved out a spot for himself in the tradition of authors Madeleine L'Engle and Lois Lowry.

Two years ago, Barbara Mark and Trudy Griswold published a remarkable book that showed us how we could reach out to our angels for guidance, comfort, and love. Drawing on the unique angel communication techniques that these two sisters have been teaching in workshops across the nation, Angelspeak has sold more than 45,000 copies to date, and another 15,000 in its Spanish-language edition. Now the authors take us to the next step: calling upon God’s messengers for help in solving personal problems and healing. Focusing on the specific steps we can take to solicit angelic intervention in times of crisis, they offer wisdom and practical advice on such topics as getting clarity on what we want in our lives, how to be trusting no matter what happens, and the power of divine healing. Interspersed throughout are the stories of people who have used the Angelspeake process and have had their dreams fulfilled. A partnership with the divine is there for the asking—that is the uplifting message of this handsomely designed and illustrated book.

This book is an accumulation of information from courses taken while attending Rhema Bible Training Center, Victory World Mission, and by the divine revelation from the Holy Spirit. Scriptures used are from the NKJV, unless noted. I have shared the revelation I believe to be important that will ensure we live a victorious life and allow angels to have charge over us. It is important that we understand the correct biblical doctrine concerning angels, their assignments, and how they are designed to operate. God created angels before all His other creations. He created angels to help each of us and to carry out His divine plan for all His future creations. Angels are here to minister to us, to protect us, and to work on our behalf. You will learn in this book angels are specific in their assignments. They have names, different ranks, and classifications. You will also learn that angels can and do play a part performing healings. They also comfort us. My focus for this book is to show there are angels among us and how we can work with them. Here are a few subjects that will be discussed with Bible scriptures: “Angels, Man, and Jesus,” “Fallen Angels/Demons,” “Spiritual Warfare,” “Can a Christian have a demon,” and “Bible Scriptures Concerning Angels.” I believe this book will help you understand angels, where they come from, and how they operate. It will teach you to expect angels to work in your life on a daily basis.

"When an angel wants to be perceived he fixes his eyes on me. It feels the same as when a person stares at you. You look up from your book or your work and look in the direction from which the stare is coming. I am aware there is someone in the room, but I do not know, before I turn round, whether it is an angel, three angels, my dead father, my son's teacher or someone else. The presence can be felt, like the presence of a bodily human being... Once, an archangel was present. The air gets so dense, so full, it makes you afraid. You have the feeling you are being overwhelmed, you are not able to breathe any more" (from the book). The first part of this unique book focuses on the author's own experiences of being attentive to angelic guidance during her many years as a priest. The second part consists of messages and information received through a friend whose ability to communicate with the angelic world, unlike many mediumistic or channeling methods, does not entail a dimming of consciousness. The messages she receives contain important guidance from the angels to humanity, including advice on how to relate to angels and how to receive clear messages from them. The book also includes answers to questions asked by Irene Johanson on the Archangel Michael, the Apocalypse, Jesus Christ, and much more.

Religious and spiritual writings have always made reference to beings from the spiritual hierarchies, especially those known in Christian tradition as Angels. These spirits are the closest to human beings and act as our invisible guides and companions. They influence the life of the individual as well as the evolution of humanity and the cosmos.From his own clairvoyant vision Rudolf Steiner confirmed the existence of such spiritual beings, and showed how modern minds could gain access to their world. As he explains in these inspiring lectures, it is important for us to understand and cooperate with the work of the Angels today as this is crucial for the further development of humanity.
