Do you believe in Angels?

I believe that we are born with angels guarding us. I also believe that through our life time there's an angel leading us to the right way. Mine is always in a form of a middle aged lady. For some reasons every time I need help or if I'm lost a middle aged lady tries to help me. I remember one time, when I was looking for an apartment I was literally lost and this lady came up to me and asked me I'm okay. So, I told her I was lost and asked for a direction. She didn't just help me find the place, in fact she knows the landlady of the apartment I was looking for. So, she helped me and told the landlady I was her niece. Many times, I've been helped by a middle aged lady and I'm very thankful for that. Do you have a story to share?

yes i believe in the existance of angels, and i am mindful of who their boss is and what their work is... I m not very good at acepting the cute fluffy type angels representations, as i feel they are to be regarded with a little more repect than cutesie images as some of their work isnt cute in any way So i see them as powerful guardians and can protect us against all manner of bad things... as well as messengers, guides, healers etc.... but not saing they are not beautiful, but not cute, fluffy and the like. I can not say that i have had knowledge in meeting one, but, have received help from random people who seem to just disappear when you want to say thank you.. My son, was knocked down by a car, and he said there was a strange man that came to help him., wearing strangely coloured clothes., as in not matching, and he was calm and made him feel better even though in pain, he felt safe .. the man had bluest of blue eyes that he has never seen before or since, and the man waited with him at the side of the road, whilst a doctor, and the ambulance was called.. when the doctor arrived my son, had the impression the the multi coloured clothing man was from the surgery, but no one had ever seen a man of that description., and wanting tothank him asked others around., none had seen him.. when i got to my son who was 16 at the time returning home from school, he told me, mum., i never really believed in what you did until today., because i just know i met an angel... it made tears flow, as he not the kind of young man to make that up., and he went on to make a full and wonderful recovery... best regards xxx

Yes, I do believe in angels. My mother told me that when I was a baby, I fell off the bed but somehow a pillow came to be on the floor to soften my fall. Also, when I was a child, I suddenly woke up to find out that our neighbor's house was on fire. It was quiet in my room and although the people outside were panicking and shouting, the noise wasnt loud enough to wake me up. So I believe it was an angel who alerted me about the situation.

Hebrews 13:2 Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it. Yes, there are Angels. For me, that verse proves it!!

Hi Santosmarchis, this is my story : This event happened about nine years ago but driving home tonight over the moors with the mist it reminded me of this occasion that I would like to share with you and would like your thoughts views or any similar experiences please. In the UK the traffic on the roundabout has the right of way and as I pulled up to a roundabout a guy on a motorbike was already on the roundabout but he just stopped. I was travelling with my two daughters and a friend and I said I don't know why he has stopped but I am not going to pull out in front of a motorbike and so I remained stationary at the junction for a couple of minutes. Suddenly from the next turning a police car pulled out and put his sirens on and went in the direction I was intending on going, I looked to the right and the motorbike had just vanished in a split second. I said to everyone in the car 'where did he go?' and then I drove my planned route but 30 seconds up the road was an horrendous car smash which had only just happened and my daughter said mum that man on the motorbike delayed us so we weren't involved and I believe that is what happened. He looked as real as you or I but he did just vanish and I feel even today that my daughter was right he was placed to prevent me going and I feel he was an agngel looking out for us bless. Ellie :D

Hi Artizan, Yes I think that because I always look out for bikes an angel being sent in the guise really made the difference as I held back and took notice. I would like to thank God for sending him to protect me and my children. Huugles. Ellie :D

thankyou for sharing that, and for me only goes to proove that angels not all cutsie and flufy.,!!!!! lol Love the fact that Biker angels are on the roads, and that you and yours where saved from something quite nasty., CHRISTMAS posted a quote from the bible., so you just dont know who or what angels may appear as to us., The thing is., if it had been a car perhaps you would have just thought idiot and carried on., so specific choice of a Biker made you take notice and delay., that makes it a personal encounter for you... thats how i think this opperates in the main., that it is something personal to each individual., in the case of my son., he thought he was talking with a doctor., because of his need you payed attention to a biker, which was what made you take notice., these things are not random, but specific., that is why i think these encounters are angelic, because He who sends them knows us personaly love xxx

Hi, santosmarichris. That is a wonderful story to hear about. I believe that I have an angel in my life too. Last year, I was walking the track and there was this lady that looked like she was in her late 40s. She was walking the track and asked me if I was okay. I told her that I was really stressed out about many things that were going on in my life. She told me that God loves me and that there were many great things that he has in store for me. She was like, just you wait and see. She was very optimistic and helpful. Till this day, I think that she was an angel that God sent to encourage me and uplift my spirits. At that time, I was stressed and I felt like I had lost all hope. This woman came and made me feel just a little better. When she left walking, I felt renewed in spirit. She made me feel so happy. I felt like someone cared and loved me. I have never seen this woman again. I only saw her twice and each time that I saw her, I was stressed out. I just was thinking about this woman this week. It is funny... And yet you posted this discussion a day ago. This may mean something..

You know that my Angel always comes in a form of a middle aged lady. Your story makes me teary eyed... Maybe we have the same kind of Angel. I wonder how she is? I haven't seen her too in awhile but I know, she is always there watching over us. :) Thank you!

I definitely believe in angels. Though I've never actually seen one in person, I always feel this certain presence that guides and guards me in my life. There was one time when I was a kid that I got into an accident while riding my bicycle. I had blacked out for a few minutes and thought that I was going to suffer severe injuries. But I kept hearing an internal voice that asked me to open my eyes. And when I did, I found out that I only suffered a few scratches and bruises, but nothing major. I believe that it was because of my guardian angel that's why I am still alive today.

You are absolutely RIGHT!!!! BUT I believe In JESUS CHRIST and that if I repent of my sins he will be faithful and forgive me of those sins then If I continue to live in him I will go to heaven. That is what the Bible tells us!!

Yeah I do believe in them. I believe that even though I can't see them, they are always around me, protecting and guiding me. My teacher in sixth grade once said that each person has more than one guardian angel guiding them. For me, guardian angels sometimes take form of my friends or those people around me who gives me comfort when ever I'm facing a problem. God sent the angels to guide us, so we also have to be grateful for them ^^

I can relate to your post horohoro01. In fact, I had made a discussion asking whom do you consider an angel in disguise on your life. I believe that when we talk of angels, we are not only dealing of those spiritual creatures. I firmly believe that aside from them, God uses people that serves as an angel for us. I consider my family, friends and relatives my angels. I also consider my colleagues, classmates, teachers and professors an angels. They might not know it but they did things that really touches my heart, keep me safe, and make me grow emotionally, mentally and spiritually. A certain mylotter can also be considered an angel. I think, when we say angel, we are thinking of someone who has a good heart, a wide understanding and has a clean soul. I know that different people in our lives possess those characteristics. Even strangers can be an angel. We may not know the roles of the people we are meeting along the way but one thing that we must always do is to show kindness. We might never know they are our angels so better be good at all times.

I have angels protecting my family. My friend, MJ, always appears at the worst times of my life to uplift and help any way she can. My other friend, PM, offers financial assistance, as well as friendship. My three neighbors have been helping since I moved to this neighborhood last September. I would not have survived without the help of all of these people. I truly believe I'm surrounded by angels.

Hi Alvaro! Did you know that each of us has an Angel based on the day we were born? It's so amazing. You can check out: http://www.viloria.com/viloria/adi/guardian.shtml If you are born Monday your Angel is St. Gabriel, Tues. it's St. Rafael, Wed. it's St. Uriel, Thurs. it's ST. Sealtiel, Fri. it's St.Jhudiel, Saturday it's St. Barachiel and Sunday it's St. Michael. It's always good to know! :)

I believe that we have angels too. Not in a form of an old lady though. But I feel that I have protected by angels everyday. I am a reckless driver but never in my life have I met an accident. Many times, I almost met an accident but it didn't happen, I know it was because of the angels protecting me. Though you are right in saying that the middle aged lady might be an angel because according to the bible, sometimes angels take into human form. That is why we should always be kind to strangers because we might be talking to angels.

Yes I believe in angels and this is the reason why. 6 years ago we had a fire and one night my husband got up to check on our little girl because he heard her talking to someone and he saw this light coming from under her bedroom door her opened the door and asked her who she was talking to and she said an angel daddy and she was sitting right here on my bed talking to me telling me everything would be ok. And ever since she has loved angels. This was when she was 3 years old.

I believe there are angels too. I was a bit skeptical at first. But, for my birthday, my boyfriend bought me Archangel Michael Oracle cards. The first time I used them I asked if I was on the correct career path and it gave me the answer that I felt in my heart. From then on, I believe angels are watching my every move and guiding me whenever I ask them to.

No. Angels, like all other religious figures, do not exist. They are as imaginary as witches and vampires. I am glad that you have received such great help from so many women though.

I do believe in angels. In fact, I collect them, and I do them in counted cross stitch. I love to see them hanging on my walls. Several years ago, I saw the movie "City of Angels". starring Nick Cage. The movie depicts guardian angels all around us, watching over us, helping where they are needed, in all circumstances...sitting on bridges, buildings, and everywhere. Makes you think. If you love and believe in angels, you need to watch this movie. If you are not a believer, you may be after you see "City of Angels".

i agree with you., this movie an awesome movie and would encourage any one to watch it, as it deals with life, as part of the whole existaence, and will make you smile, feel good, and almost certainly cry too.. but worth the sniffles.... one of my favourite angel movies is MICHEAL with john travolta.... a light hearted look at what angels may be.... not for the pure ist but an entertaining movie non the less best regards xxx

Wow, this is really new to me. I never knew any story like this. I know there is a guardian angel in every person’s life but in your story it is always a middle aged woman? Now I am wandering if there is something like that that came to my life. I believe angels appeared in my life but in different form. They are sometimes a man, a child, the same age as mine and older people. All the people who had helped me are those I can consider angle, whether a family member, relatives, friends or stranger. I believe Angels are there for us to guide us and to lead us to good. Even God have angles and they appeared in different form too.

Yes, I do believe in angels and they are amongst us to help. I haven't yet experienced in material form but I do have faith they are somewhere around me, helping me to go the right way. Many times I feel nervous if something is not done in the way I desired but is done in some another way or not done at all. But in future I realize that what had happened, and however happened has turned right. I have somewhere heard that in some western countries they apply a therapy called 'Angel Therapy' to cure some of the diseases. I strongly feel they are around us invisible and that's the reason why our old ancestors have developed the thought - to do good, to think good, to behave good to keep these angels with us, else they might fear these angels may leave us.

Hi. Thanks for sharing. I have never heard about "Angel Therapy" before. Wow, I think that is amazing. You know some diseases are really hard to cure and they sometimes need a miracle. I believe Angels can also help us. "To do good, to think good, and to behave good to keep Angels within us" is very enlightening. Thanks so much!

ya i believe in angles.Everyone got their own angle when they born.Sometime they are in a form of other person and sometime they are in a form of a person you know very well.I got two angles in my life my mom and my dad.They give me a good life.They save me from every darkness in my life, they give me everything.And after my angle flown from my life my second angle is still with me.Those are the angles of my life.

Yes! I do believe in angels that protect us from danger and other circumstances that come to our life. And GOD summons them in different forms, like that middle aged lady you were talking about. I had many stories which include angles like the car that almost hit me. I was running when I crossed the street, then suddenly I heard a honk from a car which has full speed. I didn't know what to do, I prayed shortly and after that I heard a break, and the car almost hit me closely. And after that I went to school thanking GOD for sending an angel that stopped the car. Starting there, I always stop to evil, look to GOD, and listen to his words. It's so wonderful that GOD send angels to watch over us always, isn't it? Even though we made alot of sins, GOD still loves us.
