Ten angels walk beside me,
each
and every day.
Ten angels help to guide me,
to
give comfort and protect.
They have been my
companions
since
I was very young.
Now you may ask me,
why Ten?
Do you think you
are special?
Why not one, or two, or three?
Why
Ten?
Surely you don't need so many?
|
Well, each and every angel
has a special job to do.
Yes, it seems even
angels,
specialize.
|
All of us know Faith,
Hope, and
Charity.
They are wonderful angels,
and ALL so
overworked.
But there are seven more you see,
and each and every one
gives comfort and
protects.
The Fourth angel,
is the angel I
call TOLERANCE.
Whom I fear we do not
use
enough, for if we did,
there would not be
any BIGOTRY, OR HATE.
The next angel,
is the one I call
FORGIVENESS,
who is under utilized as well.
Who
among us could not do
with
more FORGIVENESS in our hearts.
Then we have the angel
I call BEAUTY.
We all see so much ugliness in life,
I don't know a
single soul,
who couldn't
do with
more BEAUTY in their life.
The next two angels,
are the twins
I call JOY and HAPPINESS.
They are most often
seen
walking hand and
hand.
My favorite angel
is the one I call
FRIEND.
This little angel, is the one
who can
bring real riches
to our lives.
I have often heard her saying,
"To have a friend, one
must first be a friend".
And do you know,
it
WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And last but in no way least,
is
the angel I call, LOVE.
Sometimes she seems so shy,
and it seems like she is sleeping.
But she is always
near.
If we would only open up our hearts.
and just see
her standing there.
For if we did,
then all the other Angels
would
be easier to see.
It is my belief that we all have
TEN ANGELS
walking beside us.
They are sent from
God,
to see us
through,
to guide, comfort and protect us
until
the day we join HIM,
in the
place we call HEAVEN.
