Impact moments

Sometimes in retrospect it appears how the hand of God has been displayed. In that recognition, the term “grace” is understood.

Entertaining “angels unawares” is a term Mary Baker Eddy, the discoverer of Christian Science, used to describe this phenomenon, totally free of human will or capabilities (see Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, p. 299). These are moments of awakening to our true nature as being at one with Life, God—in perfect synchronicity.

I like to call these events “impact moments”—seemingly random moments that stand out as profound. When entertaining angels, we are oftentimes unaware of just how these messages are influencing the progression of good in our lives.
