It is wonderful that every angel, in whatever direction he turns his body, sees the Lord in front of him.
- Emanuel Swedenborg
Angels On Earth
Many people believe that angels are God's
messengers at work in the world today.
Angels come in many forms, from
helpful animals to mysterious strangers,
from glorious heavenly angels to
earth angels, human beings who
generously help others.
Angels can also come to us in
dreams, on a breeze, or in a
strain of music. When they
appear, they always radiate
life-affirming hope.
