Guardian Angel Prayer

Today, a sweet gentleman, from St. John Bosco, came to Mom’s room as he does on a regular basis to pray over Mom and also for her sitter.

He opened his prayer book and began reading the prayer and Mom made the sign of the cross. He went on to pray a second and third prayer from his little book.  His third prayer was for her Guardian Angel.  What happened next was so precious.

It went like this…He read, “Angel of God, my guardian dear, To whom His love commits me here;” STOP. At this point, Mom leans forward in the chair and gives three kisses into the air. Now she is a smart woman. I snickered because her guardian angel has been working overtime the past couple of weeks.

UPDATE:  Yesterday as I was going through 40 plus journals, calendars, and notepads I have stacked on my table for review, I picked up a small, red, thin notebook.  I opened the cover and found this.  So very, very special indeed.  To have this prayer, the same prayer the gentleman prayed,  that was obviously part of Mom’s daily routine and in her own handwriting.  What a treasure.

Mom’s Guardian Angel Prayer

Thankful for dedicated people who visit and pray with the sick and elderly. God bless you, sweet man.  Extremely grateful for a mother who also liked to write down thoughts and ideas.

With a smile and a happy heart,
