Guardian Angels...
I don't know where I got the idea of calling my Guardian Angel "George"! It just sort of came to me one day years ago and I was very exasperated about something and out of my mouth came this," Okay, George, why aren't you helping me????" And whatever it was that I was exasperated about eased up and so from then on, I have called my Guardian "George"! I thought I was rather weird until one day about ten or twelve years ago, a bunch of us got to talking during Bible class and this one "Old" lady, (for those of you who knew her, she was Louise St. Marie!) said that she had named her Guardian Angel "Agnes" quite a number of years ago! I perked up and asked a few other people and I guess I'm not the only weird one in the world!!! Seemed that everybody in the room had a favorite "name" for their "special" angel!!! I don't know how many times "George" has helped me get through a day, find a convenient parking spot, gave me a bit of humor when I needed it and a shoulder to cry on when I get "EXASPERATED"!!!!! I told my sister Barbara about it and she promptly named hers!!! I have asked "him" to calm me down to get a night's sleep when I begin to think that I was never going to get to sleep!! Father Matt O'Connell when he was having our Bible class asked us one day, "how many people in here have given special names to their Guardian Angels?" I asked him what about himself and he told us that he had named his Guardian when he was still a boy! So Steve, you're not off your "rocker" so to speak and I'm sure that "George", "Laurence", "Agnes" and whoever, are pleased that we think about them once in awhile in a personal way even if it is in desperation!!! Try it and I'm sure your "special" angel will show you just how special "it" is. Since it is a creature, again, so to speak, of God!!!
