Thought of the Day October 2, 2017 Guardian Angels
"'He has given his angels charge over you to guard you in all your ways.' These words should fill you with respect, inspire devotion and instill confidence; respect for the presence of angels, devotion because of their loving service and confidence because of their protection. And so the angels are here; they are at your side, they are with you, present on your behalf. They are here to protect you and to serve you. But even if it s God who has given them this charge, we must nonetheless be grateful to them for the great love with which they obey and come to help us in our great need."(St Bernard) How marvelous is our God! Loving us so much, God provides us these spiritual helpers on our journey from birth to death into eternity. Though unseen, according to God's revelation to us, they are ever present with us. In faith and love we give thanks to God and to the angels for their loving care and attentiveness. My guardian angel, pray for me as you gaze on the face of God in adoration.
