Ten angels walk beside me,
(Author Unknown)
The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest. When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole
income,lay dead in the field. The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen?
The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused. The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die. "Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied.
"When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed
and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it." "Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem."
Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every outcome is always to your advantage. You might not know it until some time later...
Our little angels up in the sky
Every visible thing in this world
is put in charge of an angel.
Saint Augustine
Their faces were living flame, their wings were gold,
and for the rest, their white was so intense,
no snow can match the white they showed....
From rank to rank they showed that peace and ardor which they
gained with wings that fanned their sides.
Angels are God's gift to look after us. No wonder why he gave us guardian angels! To bless us and secure us. It doesn't matter what religion you are, but they are with you every minute of the day. Believe it or not. Angels are our friends, sweet caring, understanding...etc :) That is why I have dedicated this page to them. I have a friend that is quite an angel collector and has angels all over her house! You should see it. It's cool. I hope you enjoy everything I have collected about angels on the web. Go take a look...
It is believed that God created the angels
before he created The Beginning.
and they were created
to live forever.
Job 38:1,4
Music is well said to be the speech of angels.
*~Thomas Carlyle~*
God's love is everywhere--in the blue skies, white clouds, birds, flowers, stars, and our little angels...Someone once asked Helen Keller how she learned of God (she could not see or hear)...she responded: "Whatever God takes away, he gives you back many fold...God revealed his presence to me thru the smell and feel of a rose..."
A Magical Angel
Who dances on air
A hint of a whisper
And she will be there.
With twinkling eyes
Perhaps you can sense her
With blue birds she flys.
With lessons to share
Reflecting the message
To live if you dare!
So open your heart
Just invoke the passion
And changes will start.
That comes from within
This Angel can help you
It's time to begin.
"Serenity Prayer"
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And the wisdom to know the difference.
Last night I had a dream
It had a tale to tell.
I dreamed I saw an angel
poor thing, he wasn't feeling well.
His body bruised and battered
His wings were ripped and torn
This angel could hardly walk,
He looked so tired and worn.
I walked right up to him to ask
Angel? How can this be?
He turned around and paused a bit
Then he spoke these words to me
"I'm Your Guardian Angel,
A great task as You Can see.
You've run amock most all your life
Look what it's done to me.
These bruises are from shielding you
In times both dire and ill.
Those alcoholic bouts and drugs you've used
I've often paid the bill
You see my wings are ripped and torn
How often they have flown you
From evils unaware.
Each mark is it's own story
Of deadly wounds destroyed.
You made me wish--more than once
That I was unemployed.
If only you could make it
Standing on your own;
Oh, don't you fret or worry--
But please try to remember--
I'm getting old and frail.
I could not believe all I had heard,
Let alone how much he cared.
I wept upon his shoulder,
Then left him in despair.
The next day I sat and pondered:
Should I really try?
And in the distance I thought I heard;
A frail old angel cry.
May You Always Have an Angel...
May you always have an angel by your side Watching out for you in all the things you do Reminding you to keep believing in brighter days Finding ways for your wishes and dreams to take you to beautiful places Giving you hope that is as certain as the sun Giving you the strength of serenity as your guide May you always have love and comfort and courage And may you always have an angel by your side. May you always have an angel by your side Someone there to catch you if you fall Encouraging your dreams Inspiring your happiness Holding your hand and helping you through it all In all of our days, our lives are always changing Tears come along as well as smiles Along the roads you travel, may the miles be a thousand times more lovely than lonely May they give you the kind of Christmas gifts that never, ever end: someone wonderful to love and a dear friend in whom you can confide May you have rainbows after every storm May you have hopes to keep you warm, and may you always have an angel by your side.

My Ten Angels
each and every day.
Ten angels help to guide me,
to give comfort and protect.
They have been my companions
since I was very young.
Now you may ask me,
why Ten?
Do you think are special?
Why not one, or two, or three?
Why Ten?
Surely you don't need so many?
Well, each and every angel
has a special job to do.
Yes, it seems even angels,
specialize.br>
All of us know Faith,
Hope, and Charity.
They are wonderful angels,
and ALL so overworked.
But there are seven more you see,
and each and every one
gives comfort and protects.
The Fourth angel,
is the angel I call TOLERANCE.
Whom I fear we do not
use enough, for if we did,
there would not be
any BIGOTRY, OR HATE.
The next angel,
is the one I call FORGIVENESS,
who is under utilized as well.
Who among us could not do
with more FORGIVENESS in our hearts.
Then we have the angel
I call BEAUTY. We all see so much ugliness in life,
I don't know a single soul,
who couldn't do with
more BEAUTY in their life.
The next two angels,
are the twins I call JOY and HAPPINESS.
They are most often seen
walking hand and hand.
My favorite angel
is the one I call FRIEND.
This little angel, is the one
who can bring real riches to our lives.
I have often heard her saying,
"To have a friend, one must first be a friend".
And do you know,
it WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And last but in no way least,
is the angel I call, LOVE.
Sometimes she seems so shy,
and it seems like she is sleeping.
But she is always near.
If we would only open up our hearts.
and just see her standing there.
For if we did,
then all the other Angels
would be easier to see.
It is my belief that we all have
TEN ANGELS
walking beside us.
They are sent from God,
to see us through,
to guide, comfort and protect us
until the day we join HIM,
in the place we call HEAVEN.
Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room. Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, "Things aren't always what they seem."
Sparkle as diamonds and shine so bright...
They fill our hearts with sweet lullabyes
And keep watch over us both day and night.
God, cradle them with your love and let them know
They are in our hearts and loved and missed so much...
In your heavenly garden they will bloom and grow
Our little angels now belong to you...life's final touch!
The angel Israel whose heartstrings are
a lute has the sweetest voice of all God's creatures.
The Koran
