Angels serve the world with pure spiritual thoughts that heal and uplifts

It is said that even God – as powerful as God is- cannot accomplish a divine task  without the assistance of His angels. Angels are thought to be mythical creatures  who have a human form with wings, who are always in the company of God and  help Him in guarding and protecting others. Actually, angels are human beings  having divine qualities. By having a loving relationship with God the Father and  with their wise and powerful intellect, angels have controlling power to ensure  thoughts they create are beautiful, powerful and benevolent.

While we spend so much time ‘making up’ our faces to ensure our appearance is  beautiful for others, we forget to make up our mind. Making up our mind means  ensuring our thoughts are positive and our feelings towards others are filled with  good wishes. Angels have inculcated this habit, where their thought patterns are  pure, peaceful and powerful no matter what happens.

Why are angels shown flying, their feet not touching the ground? The wings of  an angel symbolize lightness and freedom because angels have no bondages or  attachments in the physical world; they take themselves lightly, all their chains  have been broken. One wing of the angel is symbolic of spiritual knowledge  received from God. The other wing is symbolic of the spiritual qualities and  powers the angel has inculcated through meditation by training the mind to  consciously create beneficial and uplifting thoughts.

Meditation allows us to accumulate a stock of pure and positive thoughts that  easily and automatically finish all waste and negativity. Where there is light,  darkness does not exist, in the same way, wasteful and negative thoughts are  from a lack of having a pure and positive state of mind. The word meditation  comes from the Latin word ‘mederi’, which means cure. Curing the inner self is  not a matter of taking medicines. Through knowing oneself to be a soul and  being in loving remembrance of God, meditation establishes the balance of  having the right spiritual attitudes and making the correct use of mental and  emotional energy. When the intellect, the conscience, realizes thoughts are the  creation of the soul and not the body, it recovers the resources to cleanse, heal,  and inculcate peace, love, truth, wisdom, purity and happiness.

Angels love God and have absolute and constant support of the Supreme Being.  Angels sustain and protect by sharing sweet words of Godly spiritual knowledge,  qualities and powers. The language they use to bring about this transformation  is through the silence of positive, powerful and pure thoughts.  ‘Angels convey God is present with us, ..... concerned about our welfare and  willing to intervene to set persons on the right path. They demonstrate God’s  willingness to meet us where we are.”* (Bruce Gillette, Owego First Presbyterian Church.)

Have good wishes and be detached and loving. Like the angel, stay ‘up  above’, keep flying and heal the world with the power of your mind.
