I find it interesting..something to think about..which for me means reading more than once

You guardian angel is very real and willing to help. Over the years, I have asked for and received assistance from my angel. When a blizzard struck several years ago, I set out to find my daughter. The car became stuck on a hill in blinding snow. I called on my guardian angel for help. A while later, headlights began coming down the hill. It was a snowplow. A path was cleared enough for me to pass. The plow disappeared into the blizzard. The road ends with a turnaround so the plow would normally return ... it never did. The path was enough for me to turn the car around and navigate my way home.

My guardian angel has also been entrusted with the names of everyone who has ever asked me for prayers. Once on that list, it is forever ;-) because no one has ever asked to be removed. The first decade of my daily rosary is reserved for this "group".

Our guardian angels are better than a friend since they remain with us until the end of our lives. They carry our prayers and place them before the throne of God. Get to know your guardian angel.

Glad to be there! 😆

The Church takes this more seriously than we may realize. The Feast of the Guardian Angels is celebrated on October 2nd. There's a great book out, "Send me your Guardian Angel, Padre Pio" which talks a lot about his relationship with his Angel.

Sometimes I ask God if He would send mine to visit Jesus in the Sacrament, or be with someone who is ill, or traveling, if I can't. I confess, mine has a name, at least to me. Mother Angelica said to pray to know your Guardian Angel's name. Took over two years! One night, I was saying my prayers, and with closed eyes, I saw the name, "Thomas", and he has been so ever since. We're buddies, you might say, and someone whom I look forward to meeting, and thanking, him, as he truly is!

That was a beautiful story! I think God assigns extra angels in inclement weather! God bless you!

I love reading your stories, NYer. Please keep them coming, and add my daughter to "your list," if you haven't already done so. Her name is Therese. Thank you.

As far as my guardian angel, I can barely look him in the eye, but I still do. He's saved me countless times, like when I was on the back of a chopper with no helmet or other protection: "A Chopper is a motorcycle of which the rake of the front fork has been increased to a rake which is considerably larger than the rake of the original stock motorcycle," and the driver was moving at an incredible speed down a gravel path with no lighting other than his headlamp on his bike. How I made it off that bike in one piece must be due to my guardian angel, even though at the time I did not pray much. The next time I saw the driver of that bike, he was without one of his legs....

Yep. You’ve helped me a time or two with Prayer Circles. I’m a Believer! :)
