Today is their Feastday. The old prayer says:
“Angel of God, my guardian dear
though whom God’s love commits me here
ever, this day be at my side
to light, to guard, to rule to guide. Amen”
Strikes me that we might think a bit about those four words:
- LIGHT: What needs lighting in our lives today:
- GUARD: A prayer maybe for safety for family, friends, self …
- RULE: Is there any part of our life ruling us? Do we need to allow the Angel Guardian to take over the ruling and ask help?
- GUIDE: An awareness that we need guidance, pretty much at ever step of life’s journey.
Today is the Feastday – the day to recognise again that Sacred presence and support given us by God.
