Do You Have a Guardian Angel?
Do You Have a Guardian Angel?
Guardian Angels are thought to be spiritual beings that are "assigned" to assist people here on Earth in various ways. Whether there is one angel per person, one angel for several person or several angels for one person is open to question. But whether you believe in them or not, or whether you want one or not, many believers insist that you do have a guardian angel.

Just another way of avoiding personal responsibility for life - why bother when you have some psychic creature or other doing the work for you!
At the moment there are over 5 billion people on this planet = 5 billion of the little beasts - how are they created as the population grows - is their reproduction method asexual? Questions, questions that show the illogicality of such beliefs..

I might agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong!

- I was at a meeting where two women were late because, for the first time ever, their parking angels had let them down. They did not know each other, and this was the first time I ever heard of parking angels. It is not that they blindly trusted their angelic friends, who always showed them where to park... they both lived in CAIRO!!! If it works there...

I do have a guardian angel who has saved me on more than one occasion. It is a strange and humbling experience when you realize something has happened that is humanly impossible, but it happened, and you witnessed it.
If you have ever read the Joan Wester Anderson book "Where Angels Walk", you would be amazed. After an angel experience herself, she went around the country collecting accounts of angel experiences. It is a very uplifting book and lets you know we are truly not alone. She has a web site now where she publishes accounts from people all over the world.

Ooh I do that parking angels thing, and it DOES work.....every time I went for a massage at a certain salon that was based on a very busy road, I visualised parking right out the front. It worked every time!!! The therapist I was visiting could not believe that I managed to get parked there during the day time.
Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain.

You don't understand Stan. It's not a matter of "taking away their responsibility for day to day life" but gaining help with difficult or impossible situations. God expects us to grow, learn and deal with day to day life. But, as Christians, we belive that Satin rules the earth and there are times when circumstances arise that are impossible ot deal with with human methods. It it your right not to belive that but it is my right to believe. Whether that bothers you or not is your problem.LivinginLuxor wrote:PR - why should it bother us that 'we are not truly alone'? Why does humanity need angels (or demons for that matter) to take away their responsibility for day to day life.

I've never heard that Satan rules the earth is part of orthodox Christianity - but of course I could be wrong.
The words "God expects" bother me a bit - if there is a supreme being, creator of everything including us, how can we have the arrogance to suggest that we know what he/she/it is thinking?

Stan, aren't you too long in the tooth to expect rational explanations for faith. By it's nature it defies rational explanation. You're doomed to a dialogue of the deaf if you persist. Life is so much more fun when you just let it all wash over you. Personally I ditched the whole notion of guardian angels long ago in holy catholic Ireland when the idea was used as a heavenly CCTV watching your every move and reporting to the nuns.
