Here is a short excerpt from my book on angels. How could anyone fear them, judge them or not embrace them?

Angels and archangels are spiritual beings whose primary
function is to act as intermediaries between mortals and God. Angels have
fascinated human beings for millennium. The are usually depicted as very
graceful and beautiful beings with wings. When someone says, “You’re an angel”
they usually mean you are a blessing and have probably been very helpful.

Angels are always willing to be of assistance. They love you
and they want you to be happy. They will never interfere in your life unless
you ask for their assistance. Angels can’t do anything for you, but they can
guide you, make suggestions, and help you avoid potential obstacles. In return
they simply ask that you deepen your connection with your spirit and open your
heart to the powerful forces of love and gratitude.

 

Surprisingly the angelic realms are structured and have
hierarchies. Depending on the tradition there are many levels and numerous
categories. The term archangel comes from a Greek term archangelos which
means chief or eminent messenger. They are also known as the ‘Holy Ones.’

When you are working with the angels take sometime to get to
know them. Each one has a unique personality and each one has an area they
excel in. Once you get to know them you will instinctively know who to call on.
Allow them to become your friends and become familiar with all of them. Once
you develop the habit of calling on them you will find it becomes almost second
nature to acknowledge their presence and welcome their assistance. They are
more than willing to help you so why not let them!

With love and aloha,
Susan
