For He will give His angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways. ~~ Psalm 91:11
Take Care that you do not despise one of these little ones for, I tell you, in heaven their angels continually see the face of my Father in heaven. ~~ Matthew 18:10
Today, we had a wonderful discussion about guardian angels. I asked each of my children to think of a specific time when they felt their guardian angel was watching over them and protecting them from danger.
Nicholas seems to have the busiest guardian angel. 8-) On the other hand, maybe Nathan, Olivia, and Teresa's guardian angel are also doing such a great job guarding them in all their ways that it isn't evident how hurt they could have been if it weren't for their angels that God has put in charge of them!
From a near drowning, knocked out teeth, a broken arm, a severe laceration requiring 70 stitches, near car accidents, and more.....tonight we gave Our Lord thanks for His protection. Honestly, I believe all of it could have been worse if it were for my children being watched over.
Their copywork was both of the scripture verses above (Matthew 18:10 and Psalm 91:11), and the Guardian Angel prayer.
Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God's love commits me here, ever this day, be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide.
AMEN.
