Popular quotes about Angel! Wisdom and inspiration are here! | page 37
Some think we each have a guardian angel while others think we don't have an assigned guardian angel, while yet others think God at times - but not always and not by assignment to each of us - sends an angel on a mission of guarding.

Rest in His presence, and my guardian angel will adore Him for me. Silence.
