One evening while sleeping I was awoken by a blinding light. I sat bolt upright and felt my heart racing in my chest as I didn't know what was happening. I heard an angelic voice saying (3 times) "Do not be afraid". As I heard this I felt my heart slowing down remarkably fast so that by the time the 3rd. "Do not be afraid" was said I was wide awake and at peace. Then the voice said 3 times "It will be alright", after which the light and voice left me leaving me in total darkness.
You see, I was leaving the Military after 22 years service and there was a lot going through my mind, a young family to support, a move to where I would spend the rest of my days, employment opportunities and the list goes on. I had so much on my plate I didn't know where to turn until that night of my Visitation. Though everything fell in place after this, my marriage fell apart but I never lost my Trust in Our Lord. It all worked out and after 7 years of being single and accepting that I may well be single the rest of my days, I met my present wife at a support group I facilitated for our Diocese. We married 2 years after meeting and are happily married now. My biological daughter has come back after a 5 year absence and our relationship has flourished, however my son hasn't spoken to me in 4 years. He still holds bitterness towards me. I still love him and pray for him daily. He'll be 29 years of age come June and my daughter will be 26 in August. Everything will "Be alright" as long as I trust in the Lord. So don't give up, place your Trust in Jesus and pray, do what you can humanly do , and the rest offer up to HIM and HE will help you. Be patient.
