A life guided and guarded by angels

In this chapter of Matthew, the mentioned of angels is 3 and warning though dreams 2 times.

Jesus is God intended salvation to mankind - and it is Satan attempt to stop it. regardless of the people involved - believer or non believers - God sent his angels and through dreams interfered and ensure the safety of Jesus. Even an army of Herod cannot put a stop because God knew all things before hand.

Therefore with God we have the preemptive of being known what the end will be like. It is like a father who knew that if his child were to continue climbing up the ladder, he will fall.

As I reflect on this chapter, it is a life in obedience. But why is God silent - no angels and no dream appear to me? Have I dwell in His presence enough? I am still troubled by promotion and a pity of a need for self actualization. Can I set in my heart that the climb in the corporate is over? You are in retirement. Spend a life no longer chasing after the recognition of the world, but an intimacy with God. Spend the time with my love ones - for you have and will provide. Don't you have enough - O my soul....

God intervene, God saves - because Jesus is the purpose for mankind. What mine? What in store in my life is for God?

I have only questions - because if I do continue to see the values of the world, my priorities will never set right. God help me and help me to overcome. Break in so that I have a break through...
