I mean, why would the angel barely be visible? Why not brilliant? If they aren't wanting to be seen, how would they? If they are, then wouldn't it be obvious. Angel chasers syndrome has scarred us all. Why are these photos always grainy shots that have a thousand development reasons why shadows can appear to be things they aren't (like clouds)?
I think that sort of speaks to the essence of faith. When we are struggling in our lives at times it's important to be able to see some sort of "goal" or end in sight. The frightening reality is that if we could see clearly, much of what we would see is more struggle, heart ache and pain.
But when we wince beneath our burden; when the sweat mingles with our tears and causes our eyes to burn and our vision to blur - we may at times actually see angels.
That ministering spirit looks like nothing. Maybe the camera in the back is a ministering camera? Not sure who the evanglist is and I am sure that the person is/was well meaning. I have seen this type of thing all the time. Once a friend locked his keys in his truck. One of the men said lets lay hands on it and it will become unlocked. Before the Lock Smith arrived he also said while praying for the truck, please God let the Lock Smith not charge him "cause we are the head and not the tail" etc. Well the Lock Smith arrived popped open the door which was still locked and charged 80 bucks to open it. Some 'super spiritual' people see and believe some strange things!
