CHILDREN'S PLACE

Angel Stories
(For children - and adults too!)

Introduction

In January 1996 Les and Kathy Smalley (Authors of Angel Stories) joined a meditation group for the purpose of learning to relax and come closer to God. Shortly after starting this they began reading many books written by Annie Kirkwood and Jean Foster. These books encouraged the meditations with the purpose of contacting the Brotherhood of God for further teachings and counseling. In May of 1996, something happened that completely changed their lives.

One night while meditating, the Archangel Gabriel came to Les. During the meditation, Gabriel told Les to summon his wife Kathy. The message she received from Gabriel was that she was to write childrens' books about Angels, and how Guardian Angels protect and guide us in our everyday lives. Although Kathy's first impulse was denial, Gabriel told her there would be signs that would confirm this in her mind. There were three signs, which were received as were predicted.

Once Kathy accepted these messages in her heart, Gabriel gave her the Little Angel to communicate with through Les. One of the first questions Kathy asked the Little Angel was, &quotWhy me?". Candidly the Angel answered, "We work with what we have". The Little Angel said these stories were to be children's books. When asked about finding an editor and illustrator, the Angel said not to concern yourself with those things because they will be provided. Within a week, the editor and illustrator asked to help. At a group meditation, the Little Angel sent an Artistic Angel to the illustrator, and a Professor Angel to the editor. She also enlisted another person to write poems about Angels and was given a Poetry Angel.

In the past two months, the Angels have guided them in writing about 15 stories and 10 poems. Recently, the Brotherhood of God has also been guiding this group of people working together, answering their questions and reassuring them that they are on the right path.

The following is a sample of one of the stories from the book.



THE GIFT OF AN ANGEL
By Kathy Smalley

"I wish I had someone to play with me," Lisa said to Sweetie Pie as he jumped into her lap. Sweetie Pie was Lisa’s little gray kitten, who was just a ball of fluff. Lisa hugged her kitten tightly, "I love you Sweetie Pie. You are funny and you make me laugh when I dress you up in my doll clothes. But a real friend would be nice to play with, too." Purring softly as if he understood, Sweetie Pie nestled in Lisa’s arms.

All of a sudden, a cricket caught the attention of Sweetie Pie and off he scampered to see if he could catch it.

The little red-headed girl was very lonely. She lived on a farm out in the country and had no other children to play with. There were many animals around, like cows, chickens and sheep, but they really weren’t much fun. She longed for someone with whom she could share her time and her special thoughts.

Lisa would spend her days pretending her favorite doll, Annie, was that special friend. At her tea parties with Annie, they giggled their afternoons away. They would whisper secrets in each others ears and dress up in their mother’s clothes, pretending they were all grown up. But that was just make-believe, Lisa was still very lonely.

One day Lisa and her dad were in the barn milking the cows. Lisa spied Sweetie Pie watching her carefully and she playfully squirted milk over his way as a little treat. He always hung around the barn when the milking was being done hoping for a little fresh milk.

"Honey, I know living on a farm can be lonely sometimes" said Dad.

"Yes, especially in the summer when school’s out" Lisa said. "I do miss my friends." Then looking up at him with her emerald green eyes and smiling, she continued, "But I do like having the animals. Most kids don’t know what it’s like to raise their own cow. That’s cool!"

"I know what you mean honey, it was like that for me too."

"What did you do for friends Dad?" Lisa asked.

"Well, like you, I had pets to keep me occupied. You know, Sweetie Pie can be a very good listener. But don’t worry, sometimes your best friends can pop out of nowhere."

Lisa wondered what he meant, but busily helped her dad carry the milk into the house, with Sweetie Pie close behind.

As they approached the house, they could smell dinner.

"Smells like Mom out-did herself again!" Dad said with a big smile on his face.

Mom is a great cook. She could make the most ordinary meals delicious. But tonight will be a real treat, thought Lisa. Smells like fried chicken - my favorite!.

Conversation was always brisk around the dinner table. Each one would take their time telling the others what they did during the day. But after the dinner dishes were done was Lisa’s favorite time of the day.

That time was for Lisa and her mother. They would read books, all kinds of them. Sometimes Mom would read to Lisa and other times Lisa would do the reading. Either way, it was always a wonderful time. It was something they had done every night since Lisa could remember. Then came bedtime.

Sometimes Lisa heard someone calling her name, but didn’t see anyone. The sweet and loving voice called, " I S A..... L I S A." It sounded familiar like the voice she heard in her dreams at night.

Every night after her prayers, she would ask, "Please God, send me someone special to be my friend and never leave me."

But tonight when she heard the voice calling again, she impatiently asked, "Who is calling me?" To her surprise she heard the loving voice, stronger now, saying, "It’s me, your Guardian Angel."

Lisa was filled with the most wonderful feelings of love and protection.

Tenderly, the angel continued, "My name is Angela. I chose you on the day you were born and have been watching over you. I am here for you only and will always love and protect you. When you begin to feel lonely, lost or afraid, know I am here and will comfort you."

Lisa looked up and saw a beautiful angel with delicate white wings surrounded by all the colors of the rainbow. Her long auburn hair framed her glowing face and her crystal blue eyes were full of light.

"Believe in me with your whole heart. Call on me when you have a problem and I will help. Remember, you are not alone, for I am here for you always, " said the angel.

Lisa fell asleep happily. For the first time, she realized she had a special angel by her side.

The next morning at breakfast she asked her mom, "Do you believe in guardian angels?"

Her mother smiled and looked at her little face sprinkled with freckles. As she hugged Lisa she said, "Of course I do. Everyone has an angel just for them. They even come in different shapes and sizes just like people do. They are here to protect us and watch over us forever. They even keep us company and comfort us when we’re lonely or sad. Our angels help us in many ways that we are not even aware of. They are all loving and only want us to be happy."

From that day on, Lisa was never lonely. Now she knew she had an Angel watching over her when she played or had a tea party. Her angel, Angela, had given her a very special gift that nobody could take away from her - a friend.



I AM GOD'S PARTNER
A Spiritual Awareness Activity Book
Narrative by Jean K. Foster
(The God-Mind Connection)
Illustrations by 8-year-old Emily Teynor
from TeamUp

A message to the adult reader:


This activity book has been designed to be a joint project between you and the child you love. It is to assist you in awakening your child's spiritual awareness. The way to use it is to address the child, not the book itself. Say to the child, "This book is your book because it is about you." Then, turn the first page and write the name of the child, or let the child write it. Talk about Emily's drawings, and let your child talk about what she or he might draw. With this, the book begins and opens itself to you and your child in a most wonderous way, a way perhaps you and your child have not seen before.

VERSE FOR A CHILD
(From Jean Foster for her 11 yr. old grandson)

&"Little boy in a tree - talking with ME - How stout hearted is he. This child becoming a man - knows how to be free - just releases his troubles and gives them to ME.
The release comes fast - and the results last - for power surge in where weakness has been - and the boy (almost man) opens his mind to entering greatness, entering joy."


A Rhyme for Children (Adults Too!)
Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear.
Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair.
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't fuzzy, was he!
Or
A peanut was sitt'n on the railroad track one day
Pick'n his teeth with a carpet tack.
Along came the 5:15, Whoo! Whoo!
PEANUT BUTTERRrrr!
