Heavenly angels—archangels, guardian angels, cherubim and seraphim—take many forms. They can appear in dreams, be a voice you suddenly hear speaking your name, arrive as a patch of sun breaking through the clouds. But they have one thing in common: They always bring comfort and peace when you need it most.
