It is said that angels work in mysterious ways. Today, we saw proof of this.
This morning, Steve found his passenger-side door unlocked and the glove compartment open. At first, the losses seemed small: his first-aid kit and fifty cents in loose change were missing. These items hardly mattered. What caught his attention was the missing vehicle registration proof.
He went to the local police station to report the theft. The officer listened, provided a report number, and explained that to replace the registration, he would need to go to Service New Brunswick. This sounded like the usual bureaucratic hassle, but then Steve looked more closely at the registration paperwork and saw that the renewal date was tomorrow.
We hadn’t received a reminder in the mail. Earlier this year, our provincial government stopped sending renewal reminder notices to save money, and until that moment, neither of us had remembered the expiration date. If someone hadn’t searched through the glove box, Steve would likely have let the registration expire and incurred late fees (and the risk of a violation) simply because he didn’t receive a reminder.
It’s a strange mix of annoyance and relief. On one hand, someone broke into his car and took his belongings. On the other hand, that very crime revealed an important deadline we would have missed.
By noon, Steve had his police report and was heading to Service New Brunswick. It took extra time and patience, but he renewed the registration before midnight. So, as unpleasant as it was, someone searching his glove box ended up saving him from a costly mistake.
Call it luck, call it a coincidence, or, as we joked later, call it angels with a troublesome way of sending a reminder!


My angels do things like that to give me a heads up to small and BIG things every day the make me smile or laugh out loud – little things like drop something on the floor – what ever it is I am looking for is in eye site as I bend to pick it up whatever fell – – Thank you !!!
A really BIG one happened driving in Moncton – coming up Lutz Street to Main at the lights – I was slowing down and got ready to let my foot off the clutch (standard shift) to go through the light ANGELS JAMMED THE BRAKE ON!!!! JUST AS A BIG BLACK SUV CAME SPEEDING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION !!! it would have hit right in my drivers door and the speed he was doing I would not be here to type this – I was surprised to say least I just sat there and the light changed saying thank you – movement on left sidewalk hahahah beautiful girl – hip length red blond hair cascading over a light flowing ankle length dress a shimmering turquoise color – was standing at the corner near my car!! NO ONE WAS ON THE STREET BEFORE when I pulled up – I am always looking and had been surprised no people in site was unusual. She reached for the side of my car and then walked toward the back and poof she was no where to be seen. Guess she was reassuring me that my Angels I always ask for when I got in my car are really traveling with me !!! I am so blessed lolol
A friend who can see and talk to angels said on first visit to my apartment – there are 9 angels here and pointed out where they are and their names and their messages if they had one – AND they are always here I am never alone – it was really comforting to know !!!
My story and there are hundreds more lololol
Hi Brenda,
Thank you for sharing your amazing story!! You have a really powerful connection to the angels. I love how one materialized after jamming on your brakes, and saving your life. You’re very blessed!
Love, Kim
