There are many ways to connect with Angels. In truth there is no separation between Angels and humankind. Separation is a physical realm concept, a perception that we are not connected to Divine Source Energy.
Angels, your Guardian Angels, are always with you. You need only ask for help, speaking aloud your request, speaking silently to yourself, or simply say “Angels please help me.” Angels know your deepest desires and fears, your deepest joy and sorrows. There is no request too great or small, no request is more important than another; these are physical realm concepts.
Prayer: Prayer is a sacred and very personal way to connect with Angels. You do not pray to Angels, for they are messengers of God, the Creator of All There Is. Prayer is a way to quiet the mind, still the emotions, opening your heart for healing, receiving the guidance you seek; a way of connecting with your inner Self, your core essence of love and light. A prayer can be as simple as a moment of silence or lighting a candle and giving thanks for the many blessings in your life.
Meditation: Meditation is seeking stillness, the space in-between thoughts or the space in-between breaths. Meditation is the stillness within each of us, seeking calm and a sense of peacefulness. Meditation opens the channel within each of us to hearing, feeling or sensing, and for some, seeing Angels through their inner sight. You may receive answers to your requests during meditation while sitting in the silence or listening to soft music. (more…)

I wrote the award winning children’s book, Bartholomew’s Gift, a story about a young boy who has an imaginary friend. He eventually reveals that his friend is an angel like the one he sees over the Christmas creche. Bartholomew’s parents dismiss his experience as silly and unimportant.
Do you believe children really see angels or is it just a fantasy? Do you believe Angels exist? Do you know someone who has encountered an Angel?
A culmination of my own experiences and reading about other people’s stories peaked my interest in Angelís involvement with us.
Granted, the vast majority of us will never see an angel while roaming the earth. Why would I chose to write a story about seeing angels when it is so remote and perceived as strange or the product of a very active imagination by most people?
A key element of the story is the angel’s message. In the story, the angel sings a beautiful, soothing song. Her song reminds us that we are cherished by God; we are treasured by Him regardless of our humanness. Hard to believe sometimes, but true.
I wondered how could a story share this message with people in a soft acceptable way?
I believe Angels are God’s personal message bearers. The message of God’s care for us would be delivered by an angel. Yet, a story told from the angel’s point of view would be perceived as preachy and hard to relate to. No, it had to come from sharing the experiences of one little boy.
A little boy young enough to be unspoiled by the worldís filter of all things spiritual; who would share the visits from his special friend with others. The adult reactions to the child are all too common and frankly understandable. Any parent would wonder if his or her child was either telling lies or a very creative storyteller if they claimed to be seeing or play with an angel.
This is not something normal or common, so there must be something wrong with the little boy who claims to see a shining lady and hear her sing. The connection to this ability is so delicate, so tender, that the slightest hint of it being wrong shuts it down.
It causes me to wonder how many of us in the deepest most repressed area of our being have an image of our angel’s face.
About the time I began exploring Angels, my sister shared what happened with my nephew, then barely two, that confirmed my theory that very young children are more tuned in to the angelic realm.
My sister heard her son chatting away while playing alone in his room. When she asked him who he was talking to, he answered, Anthony. Now, my nephew had never heard the name Anthony let alone know anyone by that name.
When asked, whose Anthony, he replied, He comes down from the sky and plays with me. That’s enough to give you goosebumps on your goosebumps!
It appeared that his guardian angel was hanging out and playing with the toys.
I began to think about how most parents would react in this instance and realized many would discount it or perhaps think there was something wrong with their little one. While it may be cute at age two, keep it up and there could be some real uncomfortable folks out there wondering if the child may have a mental illness.
While I don’t want to discount the fact that there are times when a stressed child will make up stories, I still feel the ability of very young children to have a relationship with their guardian angel is prevalent though not accepted or given credence.
So, I wrote the story Bartholomew’s Gift to let children who have had such experiences know they are not wrong or abnormal. And, to help parents worried over their child’s invisible playmates to relax.
I wanted to remind everyone that angels are all around us, dropping subtle messages in our ear, reminding us to have a relationship with our heavenly Father.

Miracles exist in part as God’s gifts and in part as God’s clues. Gifts and clues that there is something beyond this world we see.
Angels exist as eternal servants to God and Christ (Psalm 103:20). These holy angels surround the throne of God and are involved at God’s bidding in the affairs of men.
“We believe that angels exist as the ministering agents of God, while Satan and his demons exist to hinder and corrupt the work of God on this earth.” (Hebrews. 1:13, 14; 2 Corinthians. 4:3, 4.)
All changes are miracles to contemplate and there are miracles taking place every second. For the truly faithful, no miracle is really necessary, and people who doubt, no miracle is sufficient.
Long before Christianity there were miracles and angels. Do not only believe in miracles, and out of life’s difficulties grow miracles; depend on miracles and believe in angels. (more…)
