Padre Pio on Guardian Angels
Invoke your Guardian Angel that he illuminate you and will guide you. God has given him to you for this reason. Therefore use him! ~ Send me your Guardian Angel—he doesn’t have to pay a ticket for the train and he doesn’t wear out his shoes.
St. John Vianney on Guardian Angels
Ah! if we had the eyes of angels with which to see our Lord Jesus Christ present on the Altar and looking at us, how we should love Him!
The first thing about the angels that we ought to imitate, is their consciousness of the Presence of God.
Our Guardian Angels are our most faithful friends, because they are with us day and night, always and everywhere. We ought often to invoke them.
The Angels take great pleasure in helping us with our enterprises, when they are in accordance with God’s will.
If you find it impossible to pray, hide behind your good Angel and charge him to pray in your stead.
We ought to ask the Blessed Virgin, the angels, and the saints to pray for us that we may receive the good God as worthily as it is possible for us to receive Him. (Sermon on Holy Communion)
May we never forget to speak to our Guardian angel and keep them company. May we always pass this on to our children in the Guardian angel prayer. Happy feast of Guardian Angels!
Today’s challenge: Speak to your guardian angel, teach the prayer to someone!
Be a servant, become a saint!
#Christian YODO (You Only Die Once; we will live again!)
212-Boiling Point-God, our Father, is all in for us, a radical love that was proven to us by giving us His only Son to Die on a cross-our response-a radical love that puts others before self
Today the Gospel is short, but it gets right to the point: Children are the most innocent people. We must make ourselves less to be like children to enter heaven says Jesus. Children don’t have a sense of pride and accomplishment. This leaves extra room for God to dwell in them. That is why we must become like children.
Our Guardian Angels are our most faithful friends, because they are with us day and night, always and everywhere. We ought often to invoke them. This stood out to me because I never really thought about this and it just blow my mind
Today God says that if you do not become humble like a child then you will not make it to the kingdom of heaven.
this gospel was telling me that even though most people look down on children, because they are young and don’t know how to live yet, but children are more powerful then all of us. Children are humble, kind, and they don’t do wrong yet. the adults who look down on them have more sin in their heart than any children they ever make fun of do. This gospel told me that we don’t need to act like children, but we should be more like them in different ways. All children make it to heaven but not every one of us does, so we should strive to be as humble and as generous as our younger peers.
Today in the Gospel, Jesus teaches a very important lesson. Whoever is humble will be the greatest. Someone who doesn’t make everything about themselves and more about Jesus. Jesus said this because some of His followers were wondering who was the greatest. Jesus wants us to realize that the greatest is Jesus. We are his followers. We are not greater than anyone or anything. So today, let us try to be humble and give our life to God.
“I SAY TO YOU THAT THEIR ANGELS IN HEAVEN ALWAYS LOOK UPON THE FACE OF MY HEAVENLY FATHER.” MT 18:1-5, 10. This stood out to me because Jesus says that the Angles in heaven will always look upon the face of the heavenly father.
Our guardian angel is always watching over us and making sure we are safe and okay. They are always spreading the word of God through us even if we don’t think that they are there.
This is saying that everyone is a temple of God and whatever we do to them we do to God and the great are the ones who are humble like a child.
“Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven?”
He called a child over, placed it in their midst, and said,
“Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children,
you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.”
We are the children of God, when we are young we are pure, but as we age we become duller, due to the exposure of inappropriate or wrong things that we see or we get pressured not to go to mass, because your friends aren’t going to mass. That doesn’t mean don’t go to mass that means we should at least be going to mass every Sunday.When we go to mass we have the opportunity to get filled with the Holy Spirit and to strengthen out relationship with God. Never stop praying and never lose that child Spirit in you.
we can have are guardian angel pray for us if we dont know what to say. we somethimes forget about are guardian angel and that he/she is allways there whatching us and protecting us.
This scripture tells us how our gaurdian angel helps us and guides us so much without us even realizing it. The phrase “he doesn’t have to pay a ticket for the train and he doesn’t wear out his shoes.” tells us how no matter where we go our guardian angel will follow without price but in our lowest times our guardian angel will be there to help us and comfort us.
In today’s Holy Gospel, which is the Good News. He is telling us that our guardian angels who are always at our sides everyday and forever, we will meet them when we get up to heaven with Jesus and all of the Holy Apostles. Jesus loves you so much that he sent an angel our way to take care of us until we get up to heaven. Our angels will always guide us till we make and to heaven but when we make it they will still be at our side. We should thank our Guardian Angels for taking care of us and guiding us through the light of God.
“He called a child over, placed it in their midst, and said,
‘Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children,
you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.
Whoever humbles himself like this child
is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven.
And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me.”
Jesus is trying to say that if you do not have a clear mind and an innocent life you will not reach Heaven and if you get a child you will get Jesus because Jesus loves you and children are always humbled so Jesus wants you to be humbled so you can reach Heaven and sit by Jesus’ side by God’s side.
What I got from this scripture was that God has given us a guardian angel for a reason and they are our most faithful friends, that are with us always. We should not forget to pray to them and keep them close to us. What really stuck out to me is “If we had the eyes of angels with which to see our Lord Jesus Christ present on the Altar and looking at us, how we should love Him!” We should try and look at God how the angels do. I think sometimes we forget how much God can really make an impact on our lives and viewing him how the angels do will grow us in our faith.
It was telling me to talk to my guardian angel and tell him/her that I’m grateful for what he/she has done for me!!
May we never forget to speak to our Guardian angel and keep them company.Ah! if we had the eyes of angels with which to see our Lord Jesus Christ present on the Altar and looking at us, how we should love Him!If you find it impossible to pray, hide behind your good Angel and charge him to pray in your stead.
In the gospel Jesus says”Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.” this showes that we must be loving and kind like children are to enter the kingdom of heaven.
In the gospel it says that if y up do not become like a child then you can’t get to heaven. He also said that you have to humble yourself if you want to get to heaven.
in todays gospel the scripture tells us that Our Guardian Angels are our most faithful friends because they are with us day and night always and everywhere.And if If you find it impossible to pray, hide behind your good Angel and charge him to pray in your stead. may we never forget to speak to our Guardian angel and keep them company. May we always pass this on to our children in the Guardian angel prayer.
Today’s gospel speaks about being pure and humble like young children. It says we need to humble ourselves to their level. Little children are some of the sweetest people you will ever meet. They love others as themselves, they believe that they are equal to everyone, and teach you some of the greatest lessons you’ll ever learn.
Today is the feast of the Guardian Angels and this means that the messengers of God are up in heaven and they always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.” This means that they always ask God what they need to do to help the people on earth.
In today’s gospel Jesus tells to his disciple that we should act more humble like children and whoever receives a child should in my name receive me or Jesus.
I think this reflection is saying not to forget your guardian angle and to speak with them the same way you would speak to your friends and to always know that they are there with you always.
*angel not angle
Todays scripture tells us that we need to stop paying attention to who is better but to be humble like a child. He tells us that as long as you look upon God as the greatest we will make it into the kingdom of heaven. He tells us that our gaurdian angel is doing so much for us and we don’t even realize let alone embrace it. We need to embrace that more and accept that they are helping us in the world and in our Catholic lives. In short summary he is telling us to be humble and believe that God is the greatest and you will enter the kingdom of Heaven with God.
In today’s gospel, Jesus’s disciples of Jesus asked who is the greatest in heaven, Jesus replied with bringing a kid over and told them not to act like a kid in heaven. He tells them that you should not despise any people and that the angels in heaven are looking over them. The gospel is trying to tell us that God sent a guardian angel for everyone and that they will guide us to show that he loves us.
What God is trying to tell us is that we need to be more like children. Less prideful and more humble. The Kingdom of heaven is theirs because of this. “Whoever humbles himself like this child, is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven.”
In today’s gospel,Jesus is telling us to be more like children. He says this because children are the most innocent people on this earth.They are not prideful like adults and do not seek lust or power. For us to get into heaven we must be like children, humble and joyful.
In today’s gospel it tells us that are guardian angels are our best friends and that they are with us day, night , everywhere and everyday and that we may keep them company and never forget to speak with them.
Today the Gospel is short but that doesn’t mean anything. Today in the gospel it talks about how our guardian angels are our most important friend. I say most Important because they don´t leave you like other people might Out guardian angels are with us when we wake up and are with us until we fall asleep. They will never leave you no matter how sad you are feeling or even how mad you are feeling! So they moral of the gospel today is that our guardian angels will ALWAYS guide us until we are in Heaven but even when we are in Heaven they will still be by our side!
Today the gospel talks about how we must be like children to enter the kingdom of heaven. I think what Jesus means by this is that we must humble ourselves and become pure like children to enter into Heaven. This is what Jesus did when he was born in the small town of Bethlehem in a stable. Having the qualities of a young child is just another step when we are trying to imitate Jesus and his perfect example he set for the world.
Today God is telling me children are the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. We must be as innocent as children to enter Heaven. We must humble ourselves and not despise children, for their angels in heaven always look upon the face of the Heavenly Father.
In todays gospel he is telling us to get help from our Guardian Angel
“Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven.” In this gospel God is calling us to be humble.
I thought that the entire Gospel for today was amazing.
If your not humble you will not make it ti the kingdom of heaven.
Today , the Gospel talks about humbling ourselves instead of comparing ourselves with others. He says that if we humble ourselves, we will be the greatest in heaven.
In today’s gospel he is telling us to pray to seek for our guardian angel so that he help us grow closer to God.
Jesus is saying do not harm another person because they have a witnes in heven
What i got from today’s Gospel if that children love and serve God with a humble heart more than adults do. There likely to turn to God. As we get older we tend to turn away from God and become shameful to pray but children have no shame in praying or turning to God.
Today God is telling me that children are the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. We must stay humble and not despise other children. We must be innocent as the children to enter heaven.
When we are troubled, our guardian angel will help us get through it. We just need to open our hearts to them and pray.
“See that you do not despise one of these little ones,
for I say to you that their angels in heaven
always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.”
This quote stood out to me because it is saying don’t despise one of these little ones and it is also saying the angles look upon the face of the heavenly Father.
“I SAY TO YOU THAT THEIR ANGELS IN HEAVEN ALWAYS LOOK UPON THE FACE OF MY HEAVENLY FATHER.” MT 18:1-5, 10 stuck out to me because it say that the angels will always look up to god.
I think what Jesus is saying is that our guardian angels are always watching and protecting and helping us to be humble like them towards everyone and God.
In today’s gospel it is telling me that our guardian angel is always by us and we can go to our guardian angel for anything.
He is trying to say you don ´t know how much you love him until you are there.
Whoever humbles himself like this child
is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven. i picked this because you have to humble your self
I think it is cool how our angels finish our rosary s for us if we fall asleep doing it and I think the gospel is telling us to ask our angel to help us get to heaven.
Everyone has a loyal guardian angel that follows them everywhere. They keep us company however we must also keep them company too by speaking to them through prayer.
“I SAY TO YOU THAT THEIR ANGELS IN HEAVEN ALWAYS LOOK UP THE FACE OF MY HEAVENLY FATHER.” What this means to me is that guardian angels are always watching over us and will protect us from things that happen on earth or even the spiritual battle. Are guardian angels will also guide us to do the right thing and help are mind to know the right thing .
“If you find it impossible to pray, hide behind your good Angel and charge him to pray in your stead.” If you fall asleep praying or just don’t want to pray, your guardian angel will pray for you and will help you to pray. Because our guardian angel loves us and wants us to be very good people, and to do that we have to pray.
“Our Guardian Angels are our most faithful friends”. To me this means that we can count on them to keep us safe. They will always be with us no matter what even if we make mistakes.
In today’s Scripture Jesus is telling me that we need to be humble. In the gospel it says that we should be like children who are humble and don’t worry. We must not have worry and let Him take over for us. Also, be humble just be humble and not be so selfish and full of yourself that it affects you and the people around. Jesus was humble so must we we need to walk inn his image so we must be humble not saying we can’y have some pride but it can’t control us.
Jesus says you have to become like a child to enter his kingdom. What I think he means is that a child is innocent and is humble.A child shows kindness and love no matter what. We must become like a child and love God and our neighbor no matter what.
Today’s Gospel says, “Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.” I feel like children have a sort of flawless and innocent perfection to them, in a way, making them people that we should not look down upon but up to. Jesus said that we cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven unless we become like children and learn to follow in Jesus’s footsteps instead of trying so hard to create our own that could lead us down the wrong path.
What I think the Lord is trying to tell me is that we all have guardian angels that follow us and take very good care of us they are kind of are little Bubble over us that protect us.
something that stuck out to me in the gospel today was “Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children,
you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.” children are very kind to everyone they meet we have to become like children so we can be kind and thoughtful toward others. another thing that stuck out to me was “See that you do not despise one of these little ones,for I say to you that their angels in heaven always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.” I believe that angles look like children and are very kind and helping of God in heaven.
In todays gospel it shows us to always be humble and be like Jesus. Be like children who are kind and humble no matter what.
In today’s gospel Jesus tells us to be like children so that we may see the kingdom of Heaven. I think he tells us this because as kids we lived carefree and we were so pure and joyful. Young children may not be the smartest but they know simple things like being kind to others. Our lives may be so complex at times but sometimes we should wind down and think simply when it comes to being humble.
Our Guardian Angels are our most faithful friends because they are with us day and night always and everywhere.
“The first thing about the angels that their consciousness is of the Presence of God.
Our Guardian Angels are our most faithful friends, because they are with us day and night, always and everywhere. We ought often to invoke them.
The Angels take great pleasure in helping us with our enterprises, when they are in accordance with God’s will.”
our guardian angles will always be with us no matter what happens and they will always finish our prayers
“if we had the eyes of angels with which to see our Lord Jesus Christ present on the Altar and looking at us, how we should love Him!” Sometimes we forget that God has a very meaningful impact on our lives. We forget to turn to God and open our eyes to his love and mercy. When we open our eyes like the angels we open our hearts to God.
You must be small and humble like a child. Children are very innocent and humble and so should we. Are ego is so big these days, it makes it hard to shrink down in humility.
Todays gospel tells us about our gurdian angels. I hold this dear to me because ive always thought of my gurdian angel as someone who loves and cares about me and will always be there for me. Reading this gosple strengthened my thoughts in this.
I think this Gospel is telling me to not run away from Jesus and let him embrace me. We should humble ourselves like the Child in the Gospel, and then we will be more like Jesus.
jesus said to them to be as humble as a little kid. To get to heaven you need to be humble and not take pride in your actions.
“See that you do not despise one of these little ones” I think God is saying that we cant be rude to somebody just becasue we dont like them we have to give them some respect because they are just like us and have made mistakes and just need some forgiveness.
In todays gospel we learn that our gaurian angel is always by our side, if we are ever in danger our gaurdian angels will protect us
In today’s gospel, Jesus said that the only way to enter the Kingdom of Heaven is to humble yourself like a child. The message I got from this was that I don’t need to do big things or be super successful to get to Heaven. I feel like it’s similar to sports; you will only become greater if you work on the fundamentals. If I want to get to Heaven, I don’t need to be “flashy” with my faith, but rather do the little things and truly love God with all my heart.
What God is telling me today is that if we are forever humble then we will be with him forever in heaven and we know this because the Lord always keeps his promises.
In today’s Gospel God tells us in order to get into His Kingdom of Heaven we must turn and become like children. When you are a child you are very humble and not as distracted. If we become just like that we can follow Jesus easier and enter into his Kingdom.
This Gospel is one of my favorites. It is one of my favorites because two of my sisters were stillborn/born too early. Another one of my sisters had to be in NICU for an extended amount of time, and it reminds me that my sisters were the children God wants us to be, they were pure and innocent, with no sin on them. This passage reminds me to stop trying to grow up as fast and to take it slow and be a kid.
in today’s gospel it tells us that we can rely on our guardian angels for prayer. It also is telling us that our guardian angels are like our best friends and that we must talk to them like we do to our close and loved ones.The Angels take great pleasure in helping us with our enterprises, when they are in accordance with God’s will.
In this Gospel God is leading me to tell theirs to be humble. don’t be gluttonous and don’t be greedy during target success Mr Goertz said hiding your strengths is a sign of strength and chastity we must be humble and when we need help or are in a deep pit of sorrowfulness to talk to your guardian angel or talk to your confirmation saint these are great ways to not only keep you in the path of virtue but keep you getting even closer to God
somehting that stuck with me when i read thi is that our guardian angel helps us pray when we feel like we cant. and also that our guardian is always here and with us protecting us. our guardian angel is a wonderful gift to us and i take advantage of it this whole time i had forgotten id had a angel of guardian and i just realized that this could help my day to day lifestyle and i love that our guardian angels dont cost money lol
I think today in the Gospel God is telling me that I should be humble, and I should try to be as innocent as a small child, so that I can go to heaven.
This gospel tells us to stay humble and pure. To get to heaven you must be the most righteous you can be and you should do all things through Christ. We should also not despise or be jealous of the people in our lives that are doing better than us. Stay humble and we can live freely with Jesus. Our angels are protecting us.
In today´s Gospel Jesus is telling us the greatest
gift in are faith is the children and unless we turn
ourselves around then we will not enter the
kingdom of heaven .
In today’s Gospel, we are called to be Children of God. Children are innocent, humble, and kind to everyone. Carlo Acutis was innocent and wanted to help others like the children Jesus told us about. He was a child of God. Likewise, we are to be humble, help one another, and not to have impure or evil thoughts like children. Our guardian angels look over us and protect us,God, the Father, protects his children because that is what a protective, loving, and caring Father would do. He wants us to be like children, innocent, humble, and kind. Like a toddler, they are innocent and happy, and they have a father (guardian) that looks over them and protects them.
A famous quote reminds me of this Gospel: “If you have a child’s heart, you have a child’s mind.”
Today Jesus told me that we all can make it to heaven but in a different way. He said we have to humble our selves like a child for young children who know not what they do wrong or right but we do and we have control over that and we have to use our control for the greater good. So we must humble ourselves like a child.
Today’s scripture to me is saying that everyone is a temple of God and whatever we do to them we do to God and we need to respect others and our neighbors like we would treat God himself.
I think what todays gospel is telling me is that there is one God and one God only, and to go to heaven u have to be a good person.
The gospel today is telling us that you should never become proud and to humble yourself like a child. Never look down on the young or old.
In the gospel, I think that Jesus is trying to tell us to hold on to our innocence as children. In other words, to have a mind like a child’s mind, always adapting and changing to new truths but still holding on to the same foundations in love.
our guardian angels are our lifelong friends and they will always want the best for us and take pleasure when we do our best. they aren’t just there to protect they are there to serve you in a spiritual way since God gave them the most amazing job of getting to be with us all the time. they are great role models as they are just and understanding just as God wants them to be and when you feel like you just cant pray ask them to do so for you. they enjoy it, and their purpose is to help guide you with the holy spirit.
I think I today’s gospel God is telling us that to enter heaven we must humble ourselves like a child. I think this is true and to enter into heaven me must also go to confession and make sure we are free of sin as a new born child who was just baptized would be.
I think God is telling me that we have to be humble like child to get into heaven
you shall always go to your guardian angels for help support and everything else you should always try and talk to them and have faith and hope that they would help you and to be innocent like children are because that is the kind of people that are in God’s kingdom
In the Gospel today, Jesus tells us to be as humble as a child so we can go into the Kingdom of heaven.
the phrase that stood out to me the most is
“Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children,
you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.”
I think this stood out to me because children are the last thing I would expect to be the humblest human beings, yet here Jesus literally tells his disciple that unless they humble themselves like the child, then they cannot enter the kingdom of god.
Our Guardian Angels are our most faithful friends, because they are with us day and night, always and everywhere. This stood out to me because it made me think that no matter what our Gaurdian angel is always there for us.
The part of the Gospel that stuck out to me was when Jesus said to his disciples “Whoever humbles himself like this child
is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven.” This meant to me that for us to get to Heaven we have to humble ourselves and to love with great love.
In todays Gospel God is telling me that we need to be humble and follow our guardian angels to get to heaven. We need to be humble and we need to not despise other children of God because no one is perfect other than Jesus. Our guardian angel is our best friend and will always help us and guide us we just need to listen and follow its lead.
I think the gospel is trying to tell me that Jesus said ” Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children,
you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven”. Than also that we have a decision to make the right choice also.
“Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.” He is saying to us to become like children. Children are humble and kind. It also talks about how angels look upon the heavenly father. We all have angels to protect us and we all have a heavenly father that will protect us and be kind to us. God treats each and everyone of us fairly and honestly. We are his children and he treats us how a loving and caring father treats their own child.
What I took from the gospel is that our guardian angels are always with us and that God put them by us to help us.
fun my grandma told me about this is you say half a prayer were garden angel will help you say the other half. if you half a rosary your garden angel will say the other half.
God wants us to play like little kids so we have guardian angels to watch over us so we won’t go in to sin
Jesus is saying today that humility is what will get you into heaven, this is very important in our lives because being humble is almost never easy, but always necessary. Being humble is the greatest trait one can have and we should strive to aquire it.
He is telling us to be humble and that will get me into heaven.
