When she opened the door, there were three glorious angels standing before her. She stood there speechless. The first angel said she was the angel of health, and she told her that she could only invite one of the three angels into her home and her life. The second angel told her she was the angel of abundance, and the third angel told her she was the angel of love. They said they would be back in the morning for her answer and, in a swirl of beautiful lights, they disappeared.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The woman rushed to tell her family of the miraculous visit. They argued late into the night. Her husband had been ill, so he wanted the angel of health. Her son wanted more money, so he argued for the angel of abundance. The woman just listened.<\/p>\n<p>At dawn, she again heard a knock at the door. With a long sigh the woman said, &#8220;I have decided to invite in the angel of love.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>One by one all the angels filed in. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But you told me I could only choose one!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The angels replied, &#8220;When you freely invite love into your life, all the other blessings will surely follow.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>With love and aloha,<br \/>Susan<\/p>\n<p>Angels are on your shoulders, just let the love in!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A woman heard a knock on her door late one night.
