Illustration: PICTURES OF ANGELS
“In this, therefore, brethren, let us affectionately love
His Angels as one day our future co-heirs. Meanwhile, however, as Counsellors and Defenders appointed
by The Father and placed over us.
His Angels as one day our future co-heirs. Meanwhile, however, as Counsellors and Defenders appointed
by The Father and placed over us.
Why should we fear under such Guardians ?
Those who keep us in all our ways can neither be overcome nor be deceived, much less deceive.
They are faithful; they are prudent;
they are powerful; why do we tremble ?
Let us only follow them,
let us remain close to them,
and, in the protection of The God of Heaven,
let us remain close to them,
and, in the protection of The God of Heaven,
let us abide.”
– from a Sermon by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux.
