Angels Are Watching Over Us


This is a quote from an article written by Kristine Fredrickson for the Mormon Times section of the Deseret News. There is more in the article but I loved the first part. We all need to be reminded of this from time to time.


"I know angels have watched over and protected me many times."
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland testified in October 2008 general conference “that angels are still sent to help us, even as they were sent to help Adam and Eve, to help the prophets, and indeed to help the Savior of the world himself.”
What beautiful, comforting truth this is, and what is lovely, in my case anyway, is that we don’t have to be “rocket scientists” — always making brilliant decisions — to be safeguarded by God. Because he is merciful and gracious, he does answer prayers and provide protection — often in amazing ways."

(I know that Angels don't have wings but how else do we show that they are Heavenly?)



(And, when I found this picture I smiled and laughed. Who doesn't want Flora, Fauna and Merryweather watching over them and their homes? I know that I do! Ever since I was a little girl I have loved them! R)
