The counsels and suggestions from our Guardian Angels come from God for our benefit. They are constantly with us. They read our thoughts. They see God always as they stand by us.

“Keeping peace within myself is a daily challenge. But, if I remember that “the kingdom of heaven is within me” (Luke 1:21), peace will be sustained for the benefit of anyone around me. Being good and gentle to myself and others is naturally pleasing. Yet, being able to maintain peace around others who challenge us is a more praiseworthy grace to live by.” –Thomas a Kempis
AFFIRMATION
How goodly is God to give us such a friend to enlighten the mind.
“Dare to declare who we are.
It is not far from the shores of silence to the boundaries of speech.
The path is not long, but the way is deep.
You must not only walk there,
You must be prepared to leap.”
–Saint Hildegard of Bingen, mystic, composer and botanist (1098-1179)
AFFIRMATION
The more I love, the more I live with ease,
The more I give the more I receive unexpectedly,
The more I forgive the more I am liberated.
How mysterious!
The more…more envelops me with Goodness!
–yours truly

We spend our lives searching for home
We grow and develop in fellowship with other people
We all are longing for heaven
