Things Aren’t Always What They Seem
Two angels were traveling and, weary from foot travel, stopped at the home of
a family who had found good fortune. The angels clothes were worn and their
appearances were unkempt.
The family looked at the outer appearances of the angels, judged them harshly
and refused the angels a guest room. Instead, the family gave the angels access
to a cold, old basement in an abandoned building on their property.
As they prepared their beds from the garbage on the basement floor, the older
angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.
When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, “Things aren’t
always what they seem.”
At the end of another day’s travels, the angels came to the home of a poor
farm family. After sharing what little food they had, the couple let the angels
sleep in their bed where the angels could have a good night’s sleep.
When the sun came up in the morning, the angels found the farmer and his wife
in tears.
