I get messages from angels all the time. Anyone can, all you have to do is listen. The one I remember the most is from the time I was downsized from my job. I'd had a feeling for a week that something was going on so I'd cleaned up all my files and the day I was done was the day I was dismissed.

We needed my income so of course I was worried. The next morning, as I was getting up, I found a dime on the living room carpet. Along with the dime, I got the message [from the angels]: "This is to let you know God will take care of you.” Every day I found a dime and every day I was reminded that God will take care of us. It didn't matter if I was walking down the street, in the store or just at home, I found a dime.

After four months, I found a new job that was a higher pay than the one I'd left with more benefits. My job loss was a blessing in disguise. For awhile I didn't find any more dimes until one particular day. All of a sudden, I broke out in a rash that I couldn't get rid of so off to the doctor. I went. Finally I was diagnosed with Lupus and totally worried since I knew someone who had the disease and she wasn't doing well.

Later, when I walked through the door [of my house], there was a dime. I knew that [was a sign] that I would be okay. To this day if I have a worry or if I am praying about a particular thing, I find a dime.
