Angels Working Overtime

by Vanessa Miller, Karen Deslandes, Robin Pendelton

The angel of the Lord encamps round about them that fear him, and delivers them. Psalms 34:7 God admonishes us not to be afraid, because He will be with us as we face difficulties. He will give His angels charge over us and keep us in all our ways. And in each of the fictional stories written in this anthology the authors clearly show God’s undeniable hand in the lives of the characters, as angels work overtime to deliver them out of harm's way. While you will enjoy fictional stories in this anthology there are also very real testimonies of God’s ability to walk with us and carry us through the storms of life. The Angels Working Overtime anthology will renew your faith and uplift your spirit.
