What Do Angels Look Like? New Article By Best Selling Author Jody Sharpe Offers Several Perspectives On The Appearance Of Angels

    WILMINGTON, NC, February 24, 2022 /24-7PressRelease/ -- There is no question that angels exist. However, the characteristics of angels are as varied as those who have encountered them in this world. Sharpe not only writes books about angels - she also collects stories about angels for the "Tuesdays With The Angels" section of her website. She recently posted a piece with a number of descriptions of angels and angels encounters:

"Angels to me, are as different as falling snowflakes," Sharpe wrote. "They come in human form and angel form, like we do, in different colors, shapes and sizes. I have never seen an angel with wings, but others I know have seen angels themselves. Some look like humans, others look like angels and some are unseen.

"I am as sure as there is a heaven above, I met an angel once over 25 years ago. He came in the form of a human, an older gentleman. Months after my daughter Kate, passed away suddenly. My dear friend, Nancy, invited me on a girl's trip to Houston. The first day of our trip in Houston, we went shopping at an upscale mall, There we met a man in a department store and had just a friendly hello to him at the men's department, However, the next day, the man came up to us in a little shop in a town an hour away from Houston that neither of us had ever been to. The tall man came up to us and surprised us by saying "hello girls". We chatted for a few minutes and he said, we thought jokingly, "See you at the airport." Nancy and I laughed and turned to look at some gifts. A few moments later, when Nancy and I turned back to him, the man was gone. Later, we realized he must have been an angel because it seemed an amazing encounter. My fear of flying had escalated after my daughter's passing. As we looked up and down the street that long ago day, the gentleman was nowhere? We sat down at a little table outside the store and said to each other,"Could the man be an angel sent to comfort me?" My fear of flying has decreased over the years now and I've looked for him at airports but haven't seen him, yet I know he is there. He never told us his name nor did we tell him ours, but to this day I call him, The Man I Call Angel.

"As I've written my Mystic Bay Series over the last ten years, my novels center around angels living as humans. I certainly have asked many people if they have seen angels. And to my surprise, so many friends and strangers have had experiences. They are all first hand from people I call friends or have met at book events. Every encounter is comforting to me and extraordinary. One encounter is from a friend. Her husband had passed away. An angel appeared to her and identified himself as her guardian angel. She couldn't see his face clearly, but his wings were a beautiful gray blue color, folded long to his sides. She said he spoke comforting words to her as she felt ill that day. She said he stood about 12 feet tall. She has never forgotten how her angel helped her with loving words and presence that day."

Readers of the Mystic Bay Series who wish to start with the first book in the series can now access' The Angel's Daughter' on Kindle Unlimited. The book serves as a great introduction to Jody's concept of angels on earth.

'Special Needs Children, The Angels On My Shoulder' is a memoir based on her twenty-five years teaching children with special needs. The book placed second in the National Federation Of Press Women's At-Large Communication contest. The book is as entertaining as it is illuminating. It's a love story about the special students and others who over the years graced her life with just that, their grace.

With hearts of angels and challenges to face, the children took Sharpe along their journeys and inspired her own life's journey of self-discovery. When sorrow came, their kindness helped her through. The synchronicity of events from high school to retirement changed her life for the better, turning her face toward heaven.

Midwest Book Review stated, "Sharpe's ability to see the good in circumstances and people identifies the 'special' in 'special needs' as she delineates her journey through the education system and those teaching and social encounters which changed her perspective and life.

"Teachers (especially those working with special needs kids) will find this spiritual and social reflection easily accessible. It's presented in vignettes which offer small, digestible bites of insight into a world where angels and kindness are present in more than one form."

'Special Needs Children' followed her recently released children's book about angels, 'When The Angel Sent Butterflies'. The new book helps children understand that love from their parents and others surrounds them. Love conquers fear and believing that angels are near can help sweep any childhood fear away. This concept is presented in the book when Angel Ken sends Jones and Kate butterflies. The book, appropriate for ages 2 to 7, is now available at Amazon and Ingram.

In addition, on the 'Tuesdays With The Angels' section of her site, Sharpe presents stories of real life encounters with angels. The stories are available at Sharpe's website at http://www.jodysharpe.com.
