Nehemiah 8:1-12
Psalm 18(19):8-11
Matthew 18:1-5,10
Today we give thanks to God for d special gift as we honour our Guardian Angels. Although, d doctrine & traditional belief in d Guardian Angel is not a dogma of Faith, it is based on d Bible.
Each person’s Guardian Angel is an expression of God’s enduring love & divine care extended to him or her every day. Today’s Gospel, clearly states that even children have their Guardian Angels: “See that you do not despise one of these little ones; for I tell you that in Heaven their angels always behold d face of my Father Who is in Heaven.” Ps 91:1 teaches: “For He has given His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.”
Our Guardian Angels are given to us by God from d moment of our existence. As d Guardian Angel Prayer goes, our Guardian Angels are committed to us, to light & guard us, & also direct & guide us. Let us always remember to pray to our Guardian Angels in d journey of life.
And as our life comes to an end on earth, may our Guardian Angels also lead us in d journey towards heaven. Amen. Good day. Have a grace filled weekend & may our Guardian Angels, pray for us & guard us!
