The Easter Sunday sermon was about the role the angels played in helping the witnesses understand the events surrounding Jesus' resurrection. The pastor likened them to a technical support team for God.
I like that analogy. What else is technical support than an external resource to help make sense of what we see but don't comprehend?
At work and play, the skills we've picked up along the way sometimes lands us in this role. We can program sprinklers and build fences, sail, sew, do taxes, teach and fix cars, run electrical lines, have a strong spiritual undercurrent, invent cool stuff. Everybody comes along nicely when we share our knowledge and expertise. It's not possible to know it all ourselves.
What a welcome relief for technical support when problems just won't solve themselves! When things loom large and we don't have the tools we need for the task, God's team is always at the ready. We just need to ask.
