In his daily homily at Santa Marta, the pope explained that the Guardian Angel is like a \u201ccompass\u201d to guide one's journey in life.<\/p>\n
He said they push the lazy to get on the road, correct those who make mistakes and takes them out of the dead ends where they live trapped.<\/p>\n
POPE FRANCIS <\/strong> Pope Francis said that the guardian angels are companions, protectors, to whom every Christian should turn to frequently.<\/p>\n EXTRACTS OF PAPAL HOMILY<\/strong><\/p>\n (Source: Vatican News)<\/p>\n \u201cThere is the danger of not going on the journey. And how many people settle down, and don\u2019t set out on the journey, and their whole life is stalled, without moving, without doing anything\u2026 It is a danger. Like that man in the Gospel who was afraid to invest the talent. He buried it, and [said] 'I am at peace, I am calm. I can\u2019t make a mistake. So I won\u2019t take a risk.' And so many people don\u2019t know how to make the journey, or are afraid of taking risks, and they are stalled. But we know that the rule is that those who are stalled in life end up corrupted. Like water: when the water is stopped up in a place, the mosquitoes come, they lay their eggs, and everything is corrupted. Everything. The angels help us, they push us to continue on the journey.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAnd the Lord says, 'Have respect for their presence.' The angel is authoritative; he has authority to guide us. Listen to him. 'Hearken to his voice, and do not rebel against him.' Listen to the inspirations, which are always from the Holy Spirit \u2013 but the angel inspires them. But I want to ask you a question: Do you speak with your angel? Do you know the name of your angel? Do you listen to your angel? Do you allow yourself to be led by hand along the path, or do you need to be pushed to move?\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cOur angel is not only with us; he also sees God the Father. He is in relationship with Him. He is the daily bridge, from the moment we arise to the moment we go to bed. He accompanies us and is a link between us and God the Father. The angel is the daily gateway to transcendence, to the encounter with the Father: that is, the angel helps me to go forward because he looks upon the Father, and he knows the way. Let us not forget these companions along the journey.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" October 2, 2018.
