When I ask this question I have no sense of beings with wings, but rather I have the sense of help when I ask for it. This is so common in my life that I can truthfully say I know that there a forces that help me, especially when I ask for help. Even small things like finding my keys, but big problems also. Most of the time I just ask for strength to face what life brings and then I am able to turn the situation over to higher powers. Every day I ask to be wrapped in angel wings as protection through the day and night. But I have never seen one or even thought what one would look like. Do you have this relationship with Angels? Please tell about it if you do.

I know there are angels because I'm sure I met one long ago. And I've seen my guardian angel in dreams a few times. The angel I met was more than 30 years ago but I remember it like yesterday. It's too long a story to tell here but what it came down to is it was the beginning of my truly believing there is a God that cares about me. He appeared as a very old man with a little white dog when I was taking my trash out, shivering because I couldn't afford a coat. He told me to be sure to put it in a certain bin and when I did, there was a practically new coat. He was gone when I turned around and I never saw him again but I'll always remember him.

Even when we do not ask, our needs often are met. It is a calming experience, that gives us peace.

I think that there are angels out there. I am not sure when or where they help people but they do. I am not sure that they only help people that really believe or not. I think that they are just like everyone else. I do not think that they appear to us with wings but as a normal person.

Oh, yes, they do exist, lisa, and they are there when we call on them. Their job on Earth is to guide us and help us do the right things while we are here on The Earth Plane. They appear however we need to see them. That could be as an ordinary person who just seems to turn up at the right time, an animal or bird bringing a message, lights or Orbs, smoke, or they may feel you need to see them in the more traditional way. Then they will turn up, wings and all!

From the witnesses that have been rescued from a fatal accident like a miracle, yes there is. I witnessed once and I believe angels are people like us that evolved, and after reincarnations we will all be perfect too, that we reincarnate to learn how to love and have greater habits. I think angels love humans, animals and the nature and feel one with it all and is really compassionated. I believe in angels but that he is someone from other life like a father, and he helps me through this life.

Temptation angels .. A pale blue that included passing around lost, seemed to be contained in a maze in which you enter the doors were so welcoming and everything you could feel was ... silence. A thin layer of dew in the air touches your skin, I felt a slight breeze of wind that brought with it the smell that I felt every morning. I decided to decipher the flavor that we all wear a different world than the one in which we lived. Pleasant breeze brought the scent of the mystery, which was close to me .. I'm not unscathed and managed to awaken in me the desire to escape and get to know the world, many of us avoided. Fear, what will be after you arrive in the world who arrived to us very hard, not made ??me stop. Flavor was strong .. I stretched my wings and fly to that Mister easy to call me ... I felt ... I felt lost wings float like a feather. The flavor is increasingly felt and the desire was stronger. Trying I started to feel a strong pressure on my wings ... I do not quite knowing what it is, but it seems I was not allowed to get there ... cedau increasingly wings were heavy and could not continue to turn to flight stepping lightly on the grass there, I felt touching the blades of grass on my foot and a cold shiver shook my body crushed when the dew drops on petals of white popcorn. Under the sun, watching me smiling as I understood I have to keep ... ... I did not understand what is happening around me drops of dew evaporates into the air and sucking behind a pleasant aroma that felt so strongly, once with this fragrance that I included, and a weird feeling .. unknown. In the distance trying to make out the colored image to see ... I do not quite knowing what it is, my curiosity grew and I tried to fly again ... I noticed that I had no wings, a sadness came over me bitter tears .. fell down on my face could not be stopped. I felt that I left behind something that I will not have: peace, happiness and immortality. Looking back, but never had the courage to come back ... I feel my body release all the strange, unknown. As I approached, the more so seeing the screen clearly, in the distance seemed strange and mysterious (a face). Do not regret anything I had left behind ... again began to live in a world that I never met with us and powerful feelings. I felt my heart pound and my body was merged into a spell. Joy, peace and happiness that I felt once I began to live in nou.Insa more intense. Nimic.Imi I could not think of a single question that comes to mind: is there really angels?

ANgels do exist savypat. They live among us everyday. And sometimes they help us through the people that we meet. I know it's hard to believe but if u reflect on the things that happened in your life, you'll know that they are there.:-)

I have seen to much evidence of their existence to doubt they are present. Thanks

Hi savypat, So much seems to depend on our belief but yes I believe in angels. Like you I don't think of them as beings of light with wings, though maybe they are, for many are convinced of this. To me they are thoughts and they've been a part of my life for a long time. You ask to be wrapped in angel wings and I repeat the Psalm 91 and it works for both of us. I have a friend why prays to St. Anthony whenever she loses something, she almost always finds it too ... I'm not sure if I know of a time when she hasn't. She repeats the same short prayer every time. Interesting don't you think? Blessings.

I believe there are angels watching over us. I also think that some of the angels are of our loved ones who have passed.

I do believe in the existence of angels. i also believe they are beings that we might not be able to see. Just because we can't physically see something doesn't mean that they are not real.

I stopped believing in angels a long time ago. I thought they're just child's imagination but I'm takin your word for it. There were times when I really needed strength to go on and I got it. I didn't pray or anything, it was kinda like a sudden wisdom that stricked me from nowhere. I guess I have to remain a believer in order for them to help me in times of needs.

Yes, I have several angels watching over me. And they indeed exist! There are times we felt so down, God will really send good people who will represent as your angels. They may not be in white or with wings, but in your heart, you could say that some forces had been working to help you out of a dangerous or difficult situations. Presently, with my small group, we decided to create our own angels, by drawing lots. The one who picked your name will be your angel for quite some time, without even telling him/her that you are the angel. Let the actions speak for it..=)

Angels are everywhere, we may not see them with wings or with halos but they are just behind you to catch when you fall. Sometimes they allow you to fall not because they want harm but to test on your strength and belief. Angels are sent from heaven to lift you up when you are down, protect you in any way. My friends and family are may angels. They are always there when i need them the most.

yes I believe that there is an Angel and that Angel could be our neighbors, family and friends or strangers with a good heart. Sometimes in an unexpected situation they just come along to give advice or help and it feels amazingly great that people like them exist and gives courage and smiles to our heart either in a day today basis or in a rare situation or even in an awkward place too.

Yes there are angel's out there, they could me among us or even up in heaven. they are all way's ready to help you in your time of need. I know by experience there are angel's, this year on January the first I woke up around one am with a fire in my bedroom. I believe the angel that woke me up in time to get out of the house was my older sister who passed away a year ago on that day and was telling me it was not my time to go. god sent her to me so that I would still be here today and not another angel up in heaven. I am very lucky to be alive, I know people can burn in fire's by not waking up in time. I thank God every day for sending my very special angel to me.

Yes there has to be angels or there would be me accidents in this world of ours. I do think some angels are not appreciated enough.
