Be an angel to someone else whenever you can, as a way of thanking God for the help your angel has given you.

EILEEN ELIAS FREEMAN

The Angels' Little Instruction Book: Learning from God's Heavenly Messengers


When God sends his angel to the soul it becomes the one who knows for sure.

MEISTER ECKHART

Sermon 9, The Reading and Preaching of the Scriptures in the Worship of the Christian Church


Hold the fleet angel fast until he bless thee.

NATHANIEL COTTON

But angels come to lead frail minds to rest in chaste desires, on heavenly beauty bound. You frame my thoughts, and fashion me within; you stop my tongue, and teach my heart to speak.

Angels and Demons can't cross over into our plane. So, instead we get what I call half-breeds. The influence peddlers. They can only whisper in our ears. A single word can give you courage, or turn your favorite pleasure into your worst nightmare. Those with the demon's touch and those part angel, living alongside us. They call it the balance.

KEVIN BRODBIN, MARK BOMBACK & FRANK CAPELLO

I believe angels are among us, bringing comfort, strength, healing, freedom and, most importantly of all, providing a stepping stone to the larger reality that is God's Kingdom--to the very heart of God.

An angel can illuminate the thought and mind of man by strengthening the power of vision, and by bringing within his reach some truth which the angel himself contemplates.

THOMAS AQUINAS

We should, can and most of the time do communicate with God directly. To my knowledge, angels are not necessary for anything. But God's creation is abundant, and asking "Why angels?" would be like asking why there are thousands of varieties of trees or stars, when we could get along with so much less. God Himself told us many times that He was sending angels to love and care for us, so He is the one who brought them into our lives. Therefore, even if we don't understand their entire purpose, I vote that we pay attention to them.

You have asked for help so know that God and the Angels are helping you right now. Continue to ask for their assistance, and then be open to accept it when it comes (and it always does).

Yes, angels are real, just as real as you and I are. Although they are largely unseen by us, they exist in great numbers.

BILLY GRAHAM

"Billy Graham says angels are real and appear as ordinary humans on occasion", Christian Today, January 29, 2016


There are nine orders of angels, to wit, angels, archangels, virtues, powers, principalities, dominations, thrones, cherubim, and seraphim.

GREGORY THE GREAT

Homilies


If angels stoop from visions of more than earthly beauty to spells of less than earthly worth, they are but fallen angels, mingling divine utterances with the babblings of madness, and the madness is not the divineness.

Entertaining angels unawares: It is always we who are to entertain the angels, and never they us. I cannot, however, think that an angel would be a very entertaining person, either as guest or host.

SAMUEL BUTLER

Notebooks


If men were angels, no government would be necessary.

Even among the angels, there is the sadness of division.
