A Prayer To My Angel
I stand before you my Angel friend and companion. I bow before you my Angel teacher and guide. What can I ask of you, what should I say? You know my fear and weakness; You know my power and strength. I ask that you take my fear and weakness, Hold them in the palm of you golden hands. Blow on them with your divine breath; Blow them away so that I am clean and free. Turn them into flowers with golden petals. I ask that you take my power and strength, Hold them in you radiant hands. Raise them up to God as an offering of My commitment to the Light. I stand before you my Angel, with your sparkling golden light. I stand before you my Love, with your ancient wings of wisdom. Knowing together one day we shall stand in glory before the dazzling throne of the Most High. Together we shall hold hands, man and angel, as all creation sings in praise and glory and triumph. Victorious in our journey together, Enriched with wisdom, power and love. Together we shall be absorbed into the great Heart of God, United as one in the sweet ecstasy of Almighty Love. This prayer is by the Angels through Joe Asterita
