The Holy Guardian Angels
Dear Family of Mary!
Today we celebrate our Guardian Angels. The are our
heavenly friends and protectors who follow us through life, protecting
and praying for us. We are never alone.
In today's Gospel, Jesus speaks of our Guardian Angels:
Matthew 18: 1-5, 10
The
disciples approached Jesus and said, “Who is the greatest in the
Kingdom of Heaven?” He called a child over, placed it in their midst,
and said,
“Amen,
I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not
enter the Kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is
the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. And whoever receives one child
such as this in my name receives me. See that you do not despise one of
these little ones, for I say to you that their angels in heaven always
look upon the face of my heavenly Father.”
The Gospel of the Lord.
Our
Guardian Angels pray for us before God at all times. Since we were tiny
in the womb, we have had our dear Angel by our side. We can pray to him
now with great love and thanksgiving. Let's give time today to look
over our lives and perceive those key moments when our angel found a way
to protect us and guide us back to God. This feast is a happy and
wondrous day!!
Here is a good prayer to pray today:
O
Holy Guardian Angel, my dear friend and solicitous guide on the
dangerous way of life, to thee be heartfelt thanks for the numberless
benefits which have been granted me through thy love and goodness and
for the powerful help by which thou hast preserved me from so many
dangers and temptations. I beg of thee, let me further experience thy
love and thy care. Avert from me all danger, increase in me horror for
sin and love for all that is good. Be a counselor and consoler to me in
all the affairs of my life, and when my life draws to a close, conduct
my soul through the valley of death into the kingdom of eternal peace,
so that in eternity we may together praise God and rejoice in His glory.
Through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen.
Holy Mary, Queen of Angels, pray for us!
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
