Has any being or figure outside of this spiritual plane ever saved you from anything???

Is it just me or what?! It's been so long, I remember that in my old house, I always woke up in the middle of the night to noises outside, and I looked at the door, there was the shadow of a woman looking at me. 

I didn't feel anything bad for her, but she stayed there until the noises disappeared.

There was something out there, I think. I don't know, I really needed to share this.
